Snow White Original Production Drawing: Grumpy
Grumpy
MEDIUM: Original Production Drawing
IMAGE SIZE: 12" x 10"
PRODUCTION: Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs
YEAR: 1937
SKU: CCV4124
ABOUT THE IMAGE: Grumpy looks a bit like he's fallen under the spell of those feminine "wicked wiles" in this original animation drawing from Walt Disney's debut full-length animated feature Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. Grumpy owes his whimsically quick-tempered personality in part to Disney Legend Bill Tytla (1904 - 1968) who played an essential role in ensuring he and the other Dwarfs each had a unique disposition. This moment can be spotted near the 1:07:45 timestamp shortly after Grumpy receives his forehead kiss from Snow as his expression begins to soften while storming off to work; Tytla also notably oversaw the animation of this scene. Grumpy has been rendered in graphite and colored pencil to a full-figured image area of 6.5" x 4.75" including his shadow on a sheet of 12 field 5-peghole animation paper. Three of the corners are marked including the initial M (likely for an uncredited assistant animator), number 71, and a studio stamp bearing the production code 2001 10A 25; the remaining corner is stamped 64 on the reverse side.
ABOUT THE MEDIUM: Original Production Drawings are one-of-a-kind pieces of art that were used in the creation of an animated film or television show. Each has been hand-drawn by a studio artist.

ABOUT:
Tom Everhart is a celebrated American painter whose work uniquely bridges the worlds of fine art and popular culture through his exclusive use of Charles Schulz’s Peanuts characters. Initially trained at Yale School of Art and later mentored by Schulz himself, Everhart transitioned from traditional illustration and architectural rendering to a bold, expressive painting style after a life-altering battle with cancer in the late 1980s.
"The "Posing" series did grow out of the previous "Hide and Seek" series that focused on the questions of one's attempt to hide their intellectual honesty in order to seek out a newly designed image... a "Poser" tsunami of posturing between who was being real, and who was obviously pretending to be real, often with the intent to deceive, could no longer be ignored." - Tom Everhart
