Drawing demands that the artist
pause, to be.
- Pat Oblak
If you paint a man leaning over,
your own back must ache.

John Nevarez

Posted by Charley Parker at 2:05 am

John Nevarez John Nevarez is a storyboard and visual development artist for Disney TV Animation. His self-titled blog is, quite simply, a treat. It’s chock-full of characters, creatures, bots and backgrounds drawn in a lively, infectious style that makes you wish he did animations, comics and everything else ’cause you just want to see more of his stuff.

The blog also includes some lively figure drawings. This is a great site for artists (and would-be artists) to visit because Nevarez makes drawing look like the most fun thing in the world.

He has published a sketchbook which is available from Stuart Ng Books (along with a way too cool selection of other artist’s sketchbooks).
