DOODLE DOO DOO…
What’s with all the doodles?
Well, I’m glad you asked proverbial voice-used-to-make-it-seem-like-someone-else-is-talking-besides-myself!
It’s not often that, we as artists, get a chance to work together and do something good for the community. Above, I’ve attached detail photos (they’re from my iPhone, so pardon the low res) of a jam board that was created specifically for an auction to benefit the organization, New Directions For Youth. On it, are sketches of Cartoon Network creations, both old and new, drawn by artists at the Cartoon Network Studios (many of them drawn by their actual creators!). The following is the list of contributing artists:
Steven Choi – Character Designer – Ben 10
Chap Yeap – Character Designer – Ben 10
John Fang – Supervising Producer – Generator Rex
Mike Roth – Supervising Producer – Regular Show
JG Quintel – Creator – Regular Show
Van Partible – Creator – Johnny Bravo
Dave Smith – Storyboard Artist – Dexter’s Laboratory
Dave Wasson – Creator – Time Squad
Tom Warburton – Creator - Codename: Kids Next Door
C.H. Greenblatt – Creator – Chowder
Serapio Calm – Character Designer – Chowder
Maxwell Atoms – Creator – The Grim Adventures of Billy And Mandy
Ian Wasseluk – Storyboard Artist – Billy & Mandy
Pendleton Ward – Creator – Adventure Time
Michelle Xin – Character Designer – Adventure Time
Rebecca Sugar – Storyboard Artist – Adventure Time
Patrick Seery – Production Assistant – Adventure Time
Kent Osborne – Story Supervisor – Adventure Time
Tom Herpich – Storyboard Artist – Adventure Time
Natasha Allegri – Character Designer – Adventure Time
Ian Jones-Quartey – Storyboard Supervisor – Adventure Time
Cole Sanchez – Storyboard Artist – Adventure Time
Alex Campos – Clean-Up Artist – Adventure Time
Oliver Akuin – Animatic Editor – Adventure Time
Santino Lascano – Background Designer – Adventure Time
Andy Ristaino – Character Designer – Adventure Time
Now that you know who these artists are, see if you can match the name with the drawing in the photos above!
And while you do that, a big thank you to all those who participated!

FUN FACT: For those of you at home, playing Six Degrees of Mary Poppins, the event where the auction took place was at the Skirball Cultural Center and the evening’s entertainment was none other than Dick Van Dyke and the Vantastix! But if that fact isn’t “fact-y” enough for you, three, count ‘em, three of Cartoon Network’s show creators work on the Disney Channel’s “Fish Hooks” right now: Tom Warburton, Maxwell Atoms, & C.H. Greenblatt!
