Hi, my name is Kevin Cross. I’m an illustrator and I started this blog to be a repository for the cartooning, illustration, and animation that is an inspiration and influence on my own work.

Earle was a painter, illustrator, and author. He also worked in the animation industry at Disney during the 1950’s. Animations he worked on included “Peter Pan”, “Sleeping Beauty”, and “Lady and the Tramp.” What I love about his work is his whimsical shapes, the color choices, and the surreal feeling of his images. Wonderful stuff. To view more I’ve provided a link to his gallery in Wikipaintings where most of these are from. Enjoy!</p> </blockquote>http://cartoonpop.tumblr.com/post/37323685147http://cartoonpop.tumblr.com/post/37323685147Thu, 06 Dec 2012 03:49:03 -0500<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_maisgv7Jck1qllucco12_r2_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_maisgv7Jck1qllucco4_r6_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://artforadults.tumblr.com/post/31770419438/more-beautifull-girls-by-robert-mcginnis">artforadults</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p>more beautifull girls by <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_McGinnis">Robert McGinnis</a> <span> </span></p> <p><span></span>American<span> artist and </span>illustrator born in <span>1926</span></p> <p><span><br/></span></p> </blockquote>http://cartoonpop.tumblr.com/post/31772503126http://cartoonpop.tumblr.com/post/31772503126Mon, 17 Sep 2012 22:21:41 -0400Robert McGinnisIllustration<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m8ql0lge9Z1r48hglo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://1950sunlimited.tumblr.com/post/29398879062/room-206-1966-artist-don-lewis">1950sunlimited</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p><strong>Room 206, 1966</strong></p> <p>artist Don Lewis</p> </blockquote>http://cartoonpop.tumblr.com/post/29398954887http://cartoonpop.tumblr.com/post/29398954887Tue, 14 Aug 2012 04:34:27 -0400don lewisillustration<p>I absolutely love these fan films!</p> <p><iframe frameborder="0" height="270" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/T2WVlmNqMMs" width="480"></iframe></p> <p><iframe frameborder="0" height="270" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/lSIlr2-mw-w" width="480"></iframe></p>http://cartoonpop.tumblr.com/post/26452873503http://cartoonpop.tumblr.com/post/26452873503Tue, 03 Jul 2012 19:36:48 -0400SupermanBizzarroAnimationDC Comicsfan film<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m6itv4SsUW1r48hglo1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://1950sunlimited.tumblr.com/post/26333465568/schlitz-beer-advertisement">1950sunlimited</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p><strong>Schlitz Beer advertisement </strong></p> </blockquote>http://cartoonpop.tumblr.com/post/26334242466http://cartoonpop.tumblr.com/post/26334242466Mon, 02 Jul 2012 03:15:59 -0400<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m5jm1mn2hi1r48hglo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://1950sunlimited.tumblr.com/post/25009383848/the-television-1967-artist-alain-gree">1950sunlimited</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p><strong>The Television  1967</strong></p> <p>artist:<strong> Alain Gree</strong></p> </blockquote>http://cartoonpop.tumblr.com/post/25010606417http://cartoonpop.tumblr.com/post/25010606417Wed, 13 Jun 2012 03:06:54 -0400Alan GreeIllustration
