This book represents a collection of hand drawn sketches that I drew on paper during my time working on shows such as Clerks, Kim Possible, Danny Phantom, Fairly Odd Parents and Scooby Doo - many of which were initially discarded and left unused. However, through persistence and hard work, selected pieces were eventually cleaned up and colored, and ultimately incorporated into various animation and toy productions.

As you peruse the pages of this book, you'll gain valuable insights into my design philosophy, as well as an understanding of the mistakes I've made along the way. I also share my shape language ideas with you, which will prove useful in developing your own character design skills.
