Danger Mouse

Season 2 Background Art

Danger Mouse was a lovely place to start out in the animation industry. I found myself working with an inspiring group of artists in the background department. I really felt the creative freedom and sense of trust that I was afforded on this show. Each episode had energetic ideas and explored fun new worlds.

Credit goes out to the whole DM team for the support, Lisa Campion (BG Lead), Antonio Terlizzi (Art Director) and Aidan McAteer (Director).
