Walt Stanchfield sketch

I just recieved in the post both volumes of Drawn to Life, a brilliantly put together collection of Walt Stanchfield’s Disney drawing class handouts. During art college I printed out and bound the pdfs that Animation Meat used to have of the notes, but it’s really much nicer having them properly published in book form. Plus it looks like there’s about twice as many handouts collected in the books than what Animation Meat used to have. In any case, Walt’s notes are priceless gems of drawing instruction, and I’m looking forward to thoroughly reading through the crisp new pages of the books and seeing what I missed out on before. Just flipping through it now makes me giddy.

On a related note, I thought I’d share this drawing done by Mr. Stanchfield which I managed to snatch up a few years ago, of an “Old Presbyterian Church”, Ballard, according to the writing on the reverse side of the picture.
