Almost frequently asked question:

Question:

“Why photograph animators, any way they are obviously trying to hide behind their drawings?”

Answer:

Because animators are animated and I was an animation cameraman at the time many of these pictures were taken. Also in many cases I was commissioned to do so at festivals, events and other scenarios. Drawing is not hiding, drawing is revealing. RKW
