He was a young artist employed by the Disney studio, but tasked with the entry-level job of finishing off the work of the animators and crafting the “in-between” animations that completed the characters’ movements. Wong had learned that studio executives were creating a film from the new novel, Bambi, A Life in the Woods by Felix Salten. Tom says the young artist read the book and without consulting his supervisor, “took the script and painted some visual concepts to set the mood, color and the design.”
His sketches recalled the lush mountain and forest scenes of Sung dynasty landscape paintings. His initiative paid off. Walt Disney, who was looking for something new for the film, was captivated and personally directed that Wong be promoted. Today, top animators and illustrators revere Wong’s work. Children today are as enchanted by the misty, lyrical brushstrokes of Wong’s colorful nature scenes, inspired by his training at Otis College of Art and self-study of Sung Dynasty art

I am sending this to all my friends gaud.
there are over 300 comments on the fic so far, and i’m reading all of them, and i have to say my favorite comments on the ones where people are sharing this with family and friends. sometimes out of spite, sometimes earnestly.
thank you for spreading me around like the invasive fungus i so truly am
I submitted it to my english teacher (our assignment was to find a well written work to share on the internet)
…I am absolutely frothing at the mouth to know your teacher’s response please
this is it
this was beyond my wildest dreams actually much thanks
UPDATE:
i am having the BEST month
I’m dying I was not prepared for this
hey I just wanted to mention the fact that this was a catholic school. just in case this wasn’t wild enough already. the disciplinary officer was a fucking nun
i am now feral. i have gone feral. i am leaning a little pile of stick again a tree, soon i will nap beneath them, they will collapse on me during the next rainstorm
I’m sorry. Getting a nun to read THE Tony the Tiger x Grinch Fanfic is the best thing ever. This person wins at life. Game over. We have all lost to the person who got a nun to read that fic.
A NUN WAS FORCED TO READ MY CRACK FIC I AM A BROKEN BEING
I wish anything could provide me with as much joy as gaud experiences upon discovering that a nun read their crack fic.
