As a kid, Ned lived in many interesting areas of the country. Fortunately, each place provided plenty of varied character and animal reference for his youthful drawings.
After graduating from Pratt Institute and sketching away many days at the Art Students League of New York, Ned began his career creating illustrations which have spanned from animation, licensing and publishing fields to the textile, giftware, web and digital markets.
He now willingly lives in yet another region, Southern California, where he not only continues to produce illustrations, but most likely serves as a character reference to some sharp-eyed kid.
