artist perspective style
I influenced the BG style by not being able to draw perspective. The BG artists developed cool graphic painting styles to make my bad backgrounds look like they were that way on purpose.
artist cartoonist illustrators
Cartoonists are untrained artists, while illustrators are more trained.
artist age get-better
All artists get better with age. The more you draw, the better you're going to get.
art reading school
Schools are really bad now. Schools are not only bad in reading, writing and arithmetic, they're worse in cultural aspects, like in music and art. They don't teach you anything.
school artist years
From 20 years of experience hiring artists out of the schools, I know-they get worse every year. They're absolutely ridiculously retarded now.
Most cartoons are those colors. They have been for 35 years.
extremely family guy
You can draw Family Guy when you're 10 years old. You don't have to get any better than that to become a professional cartoonist. The standards are extremely low.
buy cartoon complete damn everybody green industry painting pink purple school theory
You buy any book on color theory today, and it's just complete poppycock. Everybody comes out of school painting pink, purple and green. The whole damn cartoon industry has pink purple and green on their mind.
Mel Blanc has been gone for 30 years, even though he's still around.
human intended
My intended audience was everybody. I just want to make cartoons for human beings.
draw magazine nobody
Open a magazine from the 1930s and '40s and look at the illustrations in it. There's nobody alive that could touch the way they could draw back then.
people
Not very many people can draw who are illustrators today.
eye people flying
Not all cartoon humor is just about having bugged-out eyes and tongues flying out of people's heads.
writing today old-movie
In old movies, the cinematography is a thousand times better than anything today. Writing, a thousand times better.
