LAZYBONES BGs for NICKELODEON's Shorts Program

This is the first image released for a new short, 'Lazybones' that is being made over at Nick created by the genius duo of Casey Alexander and Lizz Hickey ! I helped out with painting the backgrounds which were laid out by Kenny Pittenger. I can't wait to see this one completed!

Mr Peabody & Sherman Dreamworks TVA



 My first episode was a brother and sister fight, and Cleopatra wasn't about to fight 
FAIR! This brute version of her wasn't favored in the hearts of the staff at Dreamworks. I try... happily this episode was nominated for an Annie award for character design, sadly it wasn't chosen as the winner. HOWEVER - the crew DID earn an Annie for the best Production Design in an animated series for television!
