Mike Sosnowski paints with oil on canvas and acetate to create moments from an alternate universe where monsters really do exist.  “I am the doorway for these creatures to enter our dimension via my art,” states Sosnowski. Born in 1956, he graduated from the Art Institute of Pittsburgh in 1977. The following year he was hired as an animator for Ralph Bakshi's "Lord of the Rings". For the past 22 years he has been a story board artist, working for everyone from Filmation to Disney. Sosnowski’s resume includes "He-Man and  the Masters of the Universe,” "The Little Mermaid,” "Ferngulley: The Last Rain Forest,” "The Land Before Time,” "Tom and Jerry” and Steven Spielberg's hit show "Toonsyvania" Sosnowski is currently developing an animated horror anthology for Warner Bros. He also plans to continue bringing monsters into the world via his paintings!  www.sozstudios.com
