Through out the years there has been countless people who have real creative talent most of which are really worth remembering! but the only few I can think that really inspireme to pursue my goals are both Jim Henson and Sheena Easton!

--------------
Hector Berlioz, Ambrose Bierce, China Mieville, Brian Williams, Sam Neill. For various reasons. I find anyone who has the strength to keep chasing a dream despite the odds and the general stupidity of the unappreciative masses inspiring, and this would naturally include ALL of the Muppeteers.

Aside from Muppeteers, who are a given for anyone on here, the first one to come to my mind is John Muir for being someone that respected and helped preserve the environment for the future to admire.

Jim Henson was my most biggest inspiration. Other people who have inspired me to create my cartoons are....

Richard Mueller who wrote for cartoons like Attack of the Killer Tomatoes, Darkstalkers, and The Real Ghostbusters.

Scott Shaw! who did storyboards for Hanna-Barbera cartoons as well as DC comics.

Tom Ruegger who wrote and helped create Tiny Toons, Animaniacs, Pinky and the Brain, and Animalia.

Sid and Marty Krofft for their fantasy filled Saturday morning puppet shows.

Voice actor Rob Paulsen who voiced neat characters like Yakko, Pinky, and many others.

John and Faith Hubley who animated stuff for Sesame Street and the Electric Company like Letterman.

And William Hanna and Joe Barbera who created wonderful characters like Yogi Bear, Huckleberry Hound, Scooby Doo, and The Flintstones.

I wouldnt've created my webcomics without inspiration from all these talented people.

People who inspired me?

John Denver - his music and nature of his songs
Jim Henson - singing, danicing, and sometimes going through a life you'll never forget
Jerry Nelson - hos songong, his characters always brighten up my day

That's all I can think of.
