Philo Barnhart! He is a world-famous artist known for his work with The Little Mermaid (Ariel and Ursula), Beauty and the Beast, and countless other Disney classics. He also is an artist for Kingdom Hearts! We got to talk a little about his Disney career, Kingdom Hearts, and one of the KH artbooks he was a part of. I bought one of his KH sketches, and he signed it for me! Awesome piece for my KH collection! It was great meeting him! He was sketching Ariel as we were talking and it was cool watching him work. 

 

About 5 years ago I met Quinton Flynn (voice of Axel and many other video game and anime voices) at the same xcon where I live. I got his autograph and that's with my KH collection, too! 

That is soo cool did he mention amy details that no fan has ever heard about before?

 

That's awesome dude!

No, nothing like that. He was telling me about the art, the artbook he worked on for it, and how fun it was to be an artist for Disney and how much fun he had with Kingdom Hearts! He was an artist for other Disney games, too. One of his favorites was a Jungle Book game.
