Drawn to Life is a two-volume collection of the legendary lectures of long-time Disney animator Walt Stanchfield. For over 20 years, Walt mentored a new generation of animators at the Walt Disney Studios and influenced such talented artists such as Tim Burton, Brad Bird, Glen Keane, and Andreas Deja. His writing and drawings have become must-have lessons for fine artists, film professionals, animators, and students looking for inspiration and essential training in drawing and the art of animation.

Written by Walt Stanchfield (1919–2000), who began work for the Walt Disney Studios in the 1950s. His work can be seen in films such as Sleeping Beauty, The Jungle Book, 101 Dalmatians, and Peter Pan.

Edited by Disney Legend and Oscar®-nominated producer Don Hahn, whose credits include the classic Beauty and the Beast, The Lion King, and Hunchback of Notre Dame.

Reviews for Drawn to Life: 20 Golden Years of Disney Master Classes: Volume 1: The Walt Stanchfield Lectures

For nearly thirty years, the artists that passed through the gates of Disney animation, and even non- artists like myself, were influenced by the craft, skill, wisdom, writings and sketches of Walt Stanchfield. - Roy Disney If one were to combine the artistic eye of Matisse, the common sense wisdom of Mark Twain and the entertaining storytelling charm of Walt Disney... you would get close to Walt Stanchfield. Reading his insights into drawing will enrich your artistic eye and soul! - Glen Keane, Oscar (R) winning animator and film maker Disney Legend Stanchfield beautifully communicates the essence and joy of expressing ideas through the graphic line and accumulating a visual vocabulary. Drawn to Life is a treasure trove of cogent, valuable information for students, teachers and anyone who loves to draw. - John Canemaker, NYU professor emeritus and Oscar (R)-winning animation filmmaker
