    Hurter, Albert (1883-1942)
    An illustrated biography.

  • His anthropomorphic tendencies and his comic designs were the germs that were needed in an industry that set out to make people laugh.Walt saw these abilities and make Hurter what Canemaker calls an "inspirational sketch artist." Disney would rely heavily on such talents throughout his career, but Hurter was the first and surely the prototype.

  • His job was to draw and sketch, to play with images and ideas.

  • His sketches were the foundations for most of the Disney films of the Thirties.

  • One of the model sheets from Fantasia for the Pegasus is comprised of nine Hurter sketches.

  • Below is a detail of the first image on this page showing the character of Snow White already fully developed from the very earliest sketches and giving you a better view of the facile beauty of Hurter's art.

  • This excellent book feature chapters on all of the "Inspirational Sketch Artists" including Ferdinand Horvath, , James Bodrero, , Bianca Majolie, Sylvia Moberly-Holland, Mary Blair, Tyrus Wong, David Hall, Eyvind Earle, Ken Anderson and an entire chapter on the artists creating the inspirations for today's Disney cartoons.
