Senior Cleanup Artist

2001 - 2006
I made cleaned up drawings of rough animation, while taking great pains to keep the character on model and at the same time keep the full essence and nuances of the rough animation. I worked as a Senior Cleanup Artist on Bambi 2, Cindarella 3 and Brother Bear 2. Previous to that I was a cleanup artist on Lilo & Stitch 2, Tarzan 2, The Three Muskateers, The Lion King 3, and The Jungle Book 2.
