Grew up in the Bronx, had always had a passion for cartoons/animation always wondered how they were done. Grew up watching Bob Ross painting, and Mark Kistler draw cartoons... also watching lots of cartoons like Popeye, Smurfs, HE-MAN, Woody Wood Pecker, Hanna Barbera Cartoons, Tom & Jerry, Wonder Dog, and many others. In Public school always participated in special art projects with a select group of the class which helped me develop my skills and eye as an artist. As I got older I learned through art books I borrowed from the public library. When I was a teen I was fortunate to have an older friend who graduated from an Art School in NYC.. and became my Art mentor not only in pencil, ink, and paint, but also in digital arts and photography. Thanks Mike Pares.
