description: Born from daydreams, meditations on color, character and form, and sheer inventiveness, Disney's pioneering animated films begin in the imagination of the "inspired sketch" artist. Now, for the first time ever, noted animation historian John Canemaker chronicles the lives and work of these artists, from the 1930s to the present, situating them in the history of modern art and analyzing their influence on the form. 300 illustrations.
