"Beast"-ly work

These are some of the clean-up drawings I did for the "Human Again" sequence in "Beauty and the Beast: Special Edition" (released in 2002)- specifically the scene in which Belle teaches the Beast (or rather helps him relearn) how to read, using "Romeo and Juliet". It was certainly a joy to be involved in this film.

The Beast

I drew this for a friend several years ago. If you look closely, you can see a small reflection of Belle in the glass. I still remember enjoying "Beauty and the Beast" at its Hollywood premiere in 1991, at the freshly restored El Capitan theater on Hollywood Boulevard.

Beauty and the Beast illustration

This is from one of the pages I illustrated for a Beauty and the Beast short story in a recent Disney Yearbook.
