As an only child and a temperamental redhead, my mother often found the best way to deal with me was to sit me down with a big piece of paper and some crayons. This sparked in me a lifelong passion for drawing and turning the world around me into goofy nonsense that consumes my adult life. In storyboarding I found the perfect marriage of film obsession, animation, writing, drawing and directing. I'm always working on perfecting my craft, seeking out new information and developing new projects :) Feel free to drop me a line at bengardenerart@gmail.com |
