This afternoon for a bit of light relief I started messing around with a 'How to draw...'. Book lying around the house. It was really interesting. Firstly it gave me an idea as to power and simplicity of the Disney art work. The slightest change of mood can be captured with smallest changes. The second is the inventiveness behind the drawings. They have/had to be reproduced by dozens of animators by hand so they had to be simple to draw over and over again. Yet they also had to be able to allow the viewer emote with the character - especially if the character didn't talk - so the drawings had to work really hard. Now I wonder if I am allowed to show these attempts to the wider world? I'll know shortly when the Disney lawyers come calling.
