Enjoy the World of Cartoons

I am Joe R Flores creator of an up and coming cartoon company named DIRTBAGTOONS! I have been drawing since I was 5 years old and my inspiration was the original Star Wars movie. My Granny used to draw stick figures and I was never satisfied with them so I put clothes on them and that was the first step to my artistic discovery. The second step is my Dad, he took me to see Star Wars when I was 5 years old in the local movie theater (unfortunately they were showing a double feature and the first film was some Kung-Fu one and it was bloody so I wanted to leave the theater but my Dad, stubborn as he is, said "Hell No you wanted to see Star Wars now you stay" (in Spanish of course) it's a good thing my dad kept me in the theater because when I came out of there all I wanted to do was draw the characters and since then I have been drawing like crazy. So I have to say my Granny and my Dad are the reason the art is in my heart, Thank you both. I have made 4 cartoon shorts and I am currently working on my 5th cartoon which I am hoping will kick some Ass. This new cartoon I am working on will deal with zombies in a homage to George Romero and Tom Savini. My plan is to have my own Cartoon series on TV. But in the meantime I have a couple of websites up dirtbagtoons.com and dirtbagtoons on myspace and as soon as I finish my cartoons I will post them up there.
