Classic Walt Kelly cover. |
|
Does anyone know the identity of the artist who drew "The Three Little Kittens"? |
|
@mortimer - The only other artist listed by Jerry Bails for Tiny Tot is George Kerr, so probably him. |
|
Now that I look back at all the stories on the inside of the book, I think they were ALL drawn by the same artist, who must be George Kerr. In my opinion, the artwork is ALL inferior to Walt Kelly's from that time. I used to think Kelly drew "The Three Little Pigs". But, now, I think it, like all the others, were drawn by Kerr. |

I agree with Robb that none of this looks like Kelly's work. However are you sure "Three Little Kittens" was the work of the same artist as the rest of the book? His/her whole philosophy of drawing seems different. Not only the elaborate decorative borders, but also the extensive modelling on the fur. In the other stories the artist(s) rely on animation-style outlines on their characters with a minimum of small details. The kittens story seems more the work of an illustrator than an animator. |
