When You Wish Upon A Star...(Art of Walt Disney and Osamu Tezuka)

When you ask two artist friends what is a style of art that should be posted - you get varied responses, but when it comes to animation, both have strong opinions.  So today I am featuring two artists and the rest of this week will feature classic animation artists.

Walt Disney and Osamu Tezuka are both legends in their respective countries, but both are legends in animation and usually I post stills. I have decided to post stills of or based on their work and some video clips.
