About the Artist:
I am a painter. I paint 3 dimensional cities. For many years now I have been mostly painting buildings, cities, streets, rooftops and aerial views. My methods have as much to do with the investigation of materials and a close relation to urban life. I studied art in Cooper Union, NYC. And stayed there for some years after graduation. I have now moved to Spain, where I was born. And live and work in Barcelona. My early influences are 1970s animation and children shows. Later on I became interested in modern painting, from Frank Auerbach to Van Gogh, to Miquel Barceló or Philip Guston. It is a life long dream to collaborate with animation, although I have never really learnt the techniques involved in animation. I feel my works would be great enviroments for movement. I feel very honored to be featured on Ralph Bakshi's website. Thank you!

About the Artist:
I'm a filmmaker living in Brooklyn, New York. I have recently begun working
as a freelance illustrator (website coming soon!) to make up for the vast
sums of money I am not getting paid for my film work. My recent live-action
short Notes from the Acrid Plain with Burton Hoary has gone to several
festivals, and even won a few awards (but still gets rejected from most of
the big-name festivals).
I'm going to make another short this summer, a bit of rotoscoped animation
inspired by the look of Mr. Bakshi's Lord of the Rings, American Pop, etc.
I figure since I can't afford sets and costumes, why not draw them?
I'm always on the lookout for other filmmakers and artists who love fantasy,
science fiction and experimental storytelling, but who are, like me, fed up
with the lack of smart, honest, original work being produced.

]]>This scene, one of the most action-packed in the entire film, was omitted from the final cut. This extremely rare scene shows the Balrog in his transformed state and is a must for any serious Bakshi cel collector!

I was born in 1985 in Farmington, NM. My family moved to Detroit, MI when I was three. Growing up on the infamous 8 mile road had a profound impact on my interests and outlook. In high school the only thing that excited me were my drawings so upon graduation I decided to enroll at Ringling College of Art + Design in Sarasota, Florida which is a far journey from Michigan. I originally enrolled as a computer animation major. That lasted 3 years. I switched to illustration and got back to my drawing. I graduate May 2009, and will continue my journey to make a difference with my art.
