There have been a lot of things that have influenced my work and i’ve decided to backtrack and take a closer look at the things that helped me get stronger as an artist.
Every illustrator has that one artist or cartoon that set the stage for them to build upon. For me, Looney Tunes has to be the cornerstone of my entire style.

I learned all the basic cartooning tricks such as stances as well as the animation and Reilly Method of drawing.
