The Who, What, Why & How of Me

[SpiralEFX]

Hello, everybody...My name is Les , IM Living in Orlando, Florida working at the House of Mouse... Walt Disney World. I work as a Artist at the Disney World resort. I illustrate and instruct how to draw the Disney cartoon characters to guests daily at the Animation Academy at Disney's Hollywood Studios. But my true passion is animation, more specific.. effects animation. IM happy to be a new member of Don Bluth's club. He is without a doubt one of my favorite artist & has inspired me to pursue the magic of animation. The day i saw the flame flicker on the candle at the beginning of "The Secret of NIMH", a love of animation has burned inside of me ever since. Thanks, Don

welcome! hope you enjoy your time here!

oh man, the Animation Academy. I went to Disney World with my band for a trip, and that was the one place I refused to leave, I kept going back in line(causing people to give me looks) to learn more characters.
