Some More Lady drawings
-Continuing with some of the sketches done for Lady and the Tramp and found on the DVD extras gallery (in a somewhat tiny screen size), here are some more pieces by a number of different artists over a number of different years. They all exhibit a life of their own that’s pleasant to visit. Very cartoon compared to the film they made.

One more post of these to go. On Friday.

Beautiful art, but I’m afraid I can’t express enthusiasm for this feature. Not sure why. Maybe because I’m not a dog person.
I find it interesting that Walt went with a hyper-realistic look for this film given what was going on in animation around this time. Maybe that’s why I can’t warm up to it. His next film, Sleeping Beauty, likewise, is too much at the other end of the spectrum.
I think Jim Dear and Darling made better dog owners than parents too.

Better dog owners than parents? But Lady is a child. The new baby is the usurping sibling marking the end of Lady’s period of only-child bliss and consequently leading to her first steps into adulthood.
Really liked some of these cat gags.

Hey, the two immediately go away when the baby is born, while they coddled the dog forever… what’s one supposed to think?
