About David:
Gregarious and independent minded, David became proficient in art as a child, and that sparked his ultimate passion – animation.
He put art aside to earn a college diploma in structural drafting at the age of 15, and later continued with computer drafting.
David returned to the arts in 1990 in order to create animated cartoons. He earned an Honours Diploma in Art Fundamentals from Sheridan College and attended the Classical Animation program. He received two grants which supported the production of his first 35mm animated film, HYPOTHERMIA / My Kayak Prayer. He has since completed seven cartoons which have received 16 festival recognitions worldwide.
David’s community mindedness has earned him a 2012 Community Spirit Award Nomination, a Burlington Accessibility Award, and inspired him to establish the Oakville OASIS Drawing Bee in 2010, still going strong.
David does not make animated cartoons to make money; he makes money to make animated cartoons!
