An Italian-American native of New Jersey, I earned a BFA in Film and Television at New York University, and studied figure drawing at the Art Students' League of New York. I have worked for three decades as an animation artist in television, film, and internet. My style and approach have been influenced by mentors John Canemaker and the late Tissa David. I have also spent time as a Benedictine monk. Eugene Salandra
