The Most Important Artist You’ve Never Heard Of | Winsor McCay

There are so many important artists and animators that have lived throughout history, but in my opinion, few measure up to be as great as Winsor McCay. From "How a Mosquito Operates", to "Gertie the Dinosaur" to my favorite, "Little Nemo in Slumberland", McCay influenced animation and comics in ways that other artists could never hope or dream of, and yet, he is not nearly as well known as so many others. Take a dive with me into the life and works of Winsor McCay, and learn why he is so important (and why I think he is not more well known). #WinsorMcCay #AnimationHistory #LittleNemo #GertieTheDinosaur #ArtDocumentary #ForgottenGenius #ComicsHistory #TheMostImportantArtistYouveNeverHeardOf #Surrealism #VintageAnimation
