Disney Imagineer. Animator. Instructor.
As a senior concept designer with Disney Imagineering and animating on feature animated films I've found that foundational drawing and story-telling skills are still at the heart of it all.
Feature animation film credits include: Disney's Hunchback of Notre Dame, Mulan, Tarzan, Lilo & Stitch, Brother Bear, and Universal Pictures Curious George.
Facilitating drawing, story, and animation workshops for Disney Imagineering, Disney Youth, Epcot Festival of the Arts, and several art colleges around the US, I discovered a love for teaching what I believe is the heart of visual story-telling. Gesture drawing.
I now host a weekly instructed drawing workshop called ' All In Gesture '. Become an All In Gesture Member and practice with a great community of artists!
