Statement of Intent

This statement was last updated on October 4, 2025.

Introduction

Paint Works is my original creation — written, drawn, and directed by me. Every character design, story beat, and visual choice begins with my own hand and vision.

My Philosophy

AI is not replacing artists in this process. Instead, it’s my bridge tool — filling the gap between my drawings and the full animation I want to share. Without it, this project would still be stuck on Episode 1. With it, I can finally bring the world in my head to life, step by step.

AI is not a replacement, rather an assistant.

My Creative Pipeline

Here’s how my pipeline works:

Ibis Paint → all artwork and keyframes are drawn by me.
Toon Crafter (AI) → generates in-between motion, acting as a digital assistant animator.
Arc Studio Pro → organizes scripts and storyboards.
Editing/Audio software → will be used to record voices, sync audio, and finalize each episode.

Gratitude & Future Collaboration

I am deeply grateful for these tools because they empower me to do what I could not do alone: transform Paint Works into a moving, breathing show. When the time is right, I will still bring in human collaborators — animators, voice actors, musicians — to add polish, personality, and depth.

Closing Note

The soul of Paint Works is, and always will be, mine.
