Heath McPherson

Residents of Alabama have another reason to be proud of their home state: Heath McPherson. Heath has a style that (for me at least) conjures up memories of classic Disney but, at the very same time, is still very much his own. His body of illustration work is huge, dare I say epic, both in terms of quantity and quality (be sure to click on the “Gallery” button at the top of his site in addition to the “Illustration” button). And did I mention his animation work? The pencil tests featured on his site are beautiful! My words just don’t do his work justice… you’ll have to see it for yourself, both on his site and his blog.

    The real beauty of Heath’s work lies in the inherent storytelling nature of his work. As you say, his work is reminiscent of famous Disney animators (especially in this regard) but obviously displaying the skill of a real craftsman on both an illustrative and storytelling level.
