Book Look! Cartoon Animation by Preston Blair!

I saw an episode of Clownfish TV where Disney is offering paid trainee positions for 2D animators. Disney had lost the ability to create 2D animation so they brought in 4 retirees to help train new 2D animators. I wonder if this book is part of that course. And 82 year-old Don Bluth is Launching a new studio To usher In a ‘Renaissance Of Hand-Drawn Animation’

This made me think of Frazetta's great oil paintings. I absolutely believe the reason he was such a great fantasy painter is because he understood animated movement from drawing cartoons for many years.

This was a nice after Christmas present….thanks Andy! I think Blair did some Baby Huey comics but not sure 🤔

It's funny he made those drawings of the Honeymooners at 21:20 as Blair drew the Flinstones and Fred and the gang were definitely inspired by the Honeymooners.😉 You see some Fred Flintstone mannerisms in those Ralph Kramden drawings.
