RIP Dorse Lanpher


Such sad news to hear of the passing of one my favorite artist Dorse Lanpher. A master EFX animator with Don Bluth & Disney, I can't express such happiness, that I got a chance to spend some time with him a month ago at the CTN in Los Angeles. An amazing man of such talent, I'm glad I got to meet him & let him know how much his art has inspired me. Thank you, Dorse ..... For lifetime of inspiration!
