Bio

Most of my work has been in film and television animation. My screen credits include feature films for Walt Disney Feature Animation, Dreamworks SKG, Universal Studios, and 20th Century Fox. My primary skills include Background Layout/Design and Background Painting. I have also done illustration for print media and concept art for video games.

Over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to study with many great artist/teachers, including Daniel Greene, Burt Silverman, Craig Nelson, Bill Maughan, Hui-Han Lui, Zhaoming Wu, Barbara Bradley, Howard Brodie, and Chuck Pyle (just to name a few). For many years after art school (and while working in the animation industry), I continued to study under Glenn Vilppu, Karl Gnass and Steve Houston, Bill Perkins, Ron Lemen, Nathan Fowkes, and Glen Orbik. A good deal of my success must be attributed to their patient tutelage.
