An #ArtStudy. #Cartoons. #Animation. A little #HannaBarbera, #JayWard, #EdBenedict, #UPA, #GeneDeitch. ••• I really miss Gene. Our talks, emails, his knowledge, his wit, humor, his characters, and design sense. He was a mentor, a hero, and a friend. Thanks for guiding my pen on this page tonight, Gene. You are missed. ❤️ ••• #SketchBookArt #SketchBook #JeauxJanovsky #JeauxJanovskyArt #JeauxJ #RIPGeneDeitch (at Vermillion, South Dakota) https://www.instagram.com/p/ClS-F71Owum/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

❤️ Re-sharing! I've been thinking about my former boss/mentor/and most importantly, my friend Gene Deitch a lot lately... I miss him. I like to think it's Gene nudging and gently reminding me to never forget him, our friendship, and one of his most cherished creations/characters- Nudnik. Anyhow, this is from back when I was working alongside Gene and Rembrandt Films (and Fantagraphics by association), helping to promote the Nudnik Revealed cartoon/animation DVD and related book released a few years ago. ••• 🕎 "#Chanukah is a perfect reason to buy the NUDNIK Revealed DVD! http://www.rembrandtfilms.com/nudnik.htm (#LinkInBio) Unlike NUDNIK you have 8 nights to give gifts! His menorah only has 6 candles! What a NUDNIK!" ••• #GeneDeitch #Nudnik #NudnikRevealed #NudnikRemembered #DVD #RembrandtFilms #FantagraphicsBooks #Cartoons #Animation #Hanukkah #HappyHanukkah #Menorah #RIPGeneDeitch #CzechAnimation (at Culver City, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CmW8NnQveF2/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

❤️🎄💕 Via Gene Deitch, 2014: I was going to show you what Nudnik received for Christmas last year, but after checking over the Facebook rules against the posting of images of disgusting bad taste, afronts to civilized behavior, or incitement to violence, I decided not to post it. Instead, I revert to this traditional display of Nudnik's usual, mildly destructive holiday ineptness. Thank you for your tolerance in this matter, and by the way, as the card says, "HAPPY HOLIDAYS FROM ZDENKA AND GENE DEITCH!" ••• Merry Christmas from NUDNIK, Gene, and the Rembrandt Films crew! xoxo Buy: Nudnik Revealed on DVD http://www.rembrandtfilms.com/nudnik.htm & Book https://www.fantagraphics.com/products/nudnik-revealed #GeneDeitch #RIPGeneDeitch #Nudnik #RembrandtFilms #Fantagraphics #NudnikRevealed #NudnikRemembered (at West Hills) https://www.instagram.com/p/CmmsZyqy75J/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

♥️♥️♥️ #RIPGeneDeitch. You were a living #Animation legend. A great man and a true #Artist. Your quick witted, lightning speed humor constantly had me in stitches. What an honor it was to be your friend, Gene. I learned SO much during our brief time working together alongside one another, I also proudly add #Mentor to that many hatted list that you wore. Thank you Gene- for your guidance, encouragement, and everything. Especially our friendship. I am forever #Grateful. I love you, Gene and will miss you and your emails all the way from #Czechia every day. Dear Zdenka is in my thoughts and prayers during this time. Please look down on her and keep her safe. 💕💕💕 #GeneDeitch #Nudnik #NudnikRemembered #NudnikRevealed #ForTheLoveOfPrague #TerryToons #UPA #TomAndJerry #Munro #GeraldMcBoingBoing #TomTerrific #TerrbleThompson #ForTheLoveOfAnimation #TheCat #CatOnAHitThinGroove #Jazz #Cartoons #Love (at Culver City, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_GQ4iBDviL/?igshid=vyd2f46j7sjw

A while back I drew Gene as his #Cartoon alter-ego: #TheCat, from his #Jazz #ComicStrips found in #TheRecordChanger magazine which ran from 1945-1951. His #Comics were amazing. #RIPGeneDeitch #NeedleNose #CatOnAHotThinGroove #Fantagraphics #Comix #ReadMoreComics #JeauxJanovsky #JeauxJ #JeauxJanovskyArt (at Culver City, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_JNDxfj7eM/?igshid=1qbhq2icr37hd

Gene Deitch, the creator of Tom & Jerry has left us. One of the responsible for the introduction of classical music in the lives of millions of kids around the world. Without mention the happiness that his 2 characters has brought to all of us. RIP master, your creation will be always here to remind us that we don’t need talk to share happiness. #ripgenedeitch #tomnjerrycrying #music #classicalmusic (at Peterborough, Cambridgeshire, UK) https://www.instagram.com/p/CD-QvAUHLgN/?igshid=1b8s8qxhj5os2
