Over 40 Dwarf Names That Didn’t Make The Cut
When Disney began drafting dwarf names for 1937’s Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, they first compiled this short list of potential dwarven candidates.
Doc was added to the roster later, and as you can see below, some of these names would’ve made Disney’s first theatrical animated release an unmitigated train wreck. If I were in the director’s chair, I would’ve recruited an all-star team of Burpy, Flabby, Hickey, Wheezy, Dirty, Awful, and Biggo-Ego, who I can only assume was trained in Freudian psychoanalysis.

Elderly Mickey Mouse
Mickey was ‘born’ 83 years ago (November 18, 1928), and I wanted to explore how he may have aged. BIG thanks to Kosart Effects Studios where I recently took a mask-making class unlocking a whole new set of possibilities for my art.
Disney Selects Noah as Official Artist of D23 Expo
According to the Disney release: “Remember… it all started with a Mouse is a tribute to Walt’s legacy and visionary imagination. As part of this year’s D23 Expo, Disney Consumer Products commissioned local artist Noah to create an iconic graphic celebrating this year’s themes. In exquisite detail, Noah has captured the joy and laughter that come from Walt Disney’s ever-familiar and contagious smile. By carefully selecting a beautiful palette of colors, he cleverly reveals this year’s celebrated Disney film anniversaries, which include One Hundred and One Dalmatians, Alice in Wonderland, Dumbo and Beauty and the Beast.”
For the past decade, Noah has continued to magically interpret Disney characters through his unique style, which has become a favorite among Disney collectors worldwide.
