The Pinto Variety Hour pilot episode is now available to watch on YouTube! You can watch the full 22+ minutes of award-winning hand drawn 2D animation for free on the Catch and Hatch channel.

This adult animation pilot was selected for over 30 international film festivals and won multiple awards including Best TV Pilot, Best Animation, and Best Voice Acting in a TV Pilot.

I wrote, directed, and animated the whole episode. Additionally, I composed some of the music including the theme song.

What really made it come alive though was the voice acting by Coulter Rail, Anna Simpson, Cara Swift, Alfred Smith, Brianna Lawrence, and Matt Simpson.

I’m in the middle of producing a music video for Quoin. This clip contains over 500 individual 8.5” crayon drawings that I scanned into my computer. The finished video will consist of over 1800 crayon drawings.

The song called “From One Thought To Another” is about a telepathic love connection.

Quoin (pronounced coin) @quoin_music is the name of my new musical project. I wrote and recorded 13 songs in 2 months (January-February 2026) and am currently mixing the album.

I hadn’t written any songs from a personal perspective in years so I was surprised when inspiration started knocking back in January.

I felt a certain duty to channel it the best I could while it was flowing. I’m excited to share the record with you in the next month when it’s ready.
