An ANNIE AWARD !

Last night I, along with my fellow designers Carter Goodrich and Takao Noguchi, won the ANNIE AWARD for "Outstanding Achievement in Character Design for a Feature Production" for our work on Dreamworks animation's the CROODS. This is my second Annie Award (and second nomination), and I am incredibly grateful and honored to have been considered alongside all of the amazingly talented nominees once again. Below is a quick backstage snapshot(From left to right: Carter, Takao, and me).

A huge thank you for all of the kind congratulatory messages from friends, family, colleagues and strangers from around the world. I am honored to have even received a congrats in Klingon (Thanks Shawn Keller). All forms of well wishes have been much appreciated. Thank you.
