Tom Matousek is a San Francisco-based, award-winning artist, who began his artistic journey by studying cartoons as a child and in a short time, could draw almost anything from memory. “I have lots of memories of staying up late with my brother and friends, watching Creature Features, and drawing anything we could get our hands on—the sports page, baseball and football cards, beverage cans, and cartoon characters. I would stay in my room for hours creating my own cartoons. From the time I was a kid, it was my dream to be a Disney artist.
