Hi! I'm currently a storyboard artist and character designer at Disney TV working on Wander Over Yonder! I just finished a 6 year run as a story artist at DreamWorks were I boarded on How To Train Your Dragon among other movies. I'm an Emmy Award winner for my character designs on "Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends". I've worked as a storyboard artist and character designer at Nickelodeon on Danny Phantom, and a character designer at Disney TV for too many projects to list. I've been nominated for 7 Annie Awards and have recently self published my first graphic novel: "Seaweed, and the Cure for Mildew." All work is is a copyright of me unless it's for some studio I'm working for.

Pip-pip, cheerio! I love your elephant...and especially his tiny hat! Don't know which regiment he's from, but he looks so very British. Beautiful design, as always. It's such a treat to see your work. I, too, will be adding an elephant to baby Henry's collection. Looks like mine will be in exceptionally good company. :)
Wonderful illustration, Ben.
