artist appreciation

This work is by Shannon Szczepanski, http://www.hireanillustrator.com/i/portfolio/shannon-szczepanski/.  I've had a fascination for anthropomorphized animations since I was a kid.  Shows like Road Rovers, Street Sharks, Swat Cats were a fond part of my weekend cartoons.  I also enjoyed movies as I grew up like Secret of Nihm, The American Tale Series, and Disney's Robin Hood.  This picture, reminds me a bit of the past, when I could simply appreciate the range of character's (and species) as I watched stories of dog's trying to save the world, two jet pilot cats keep the city safe, or a picaresque fox trotting about the kingdom to steal from the rich to give to the poor.
