Eldon Dedini was an American cartoonist best known for his works to magazines as The New Yorker, Esquire and Playboy. But early in his career, he was an editorial cartoonist for local newspapers, and a story man for Walt Disney. At ASIFA-Hollywood Animation Archive Project Blog post Eldon Dedini’s Satyrs and Nymphs there is a nice video interview with the cartoonist, made by Ken Kearney in 2005, and several Dedini’s cartoons of satyrs and nymphs to Playboy. I wanted to post other illustration, but they are all probably NSFW.
I’d never heard of this great talent, until I read your post. Can’t speak for the whole country, but I’m guessing he’s virtually unknown in the UK. Great stuff.
