David went on to work with Disney Animation, Don Bluth Animation, Rich Animation, as well as several other studios, working on such features as The Lion King, Aladdin, etc.<\/p>\n<p>During his time as an illustrator, David began to experiment with different types of clay, and started sculpting the characters from those films he animated. Ultimately, after his work was discovered at a local art exhibition, David was commissioned to create a limited edition chess set for the Warner Bros. Studio Stores. Not long after that David was contacted by Disney Studios to create sculptures of individual characters as well as chess sets for their stores, galleries, theme parks and catalog.<\/p>\n<p>Kracov\u2019s vibrant color palette shows up again in his unique steel wall sculptures. Each in a limited edition of only 55 works that begin with hundreds of small sketches that are then hand-cut from a single sheet of steel and then finished with detailed painting in a high-grade, water-based, acrylic polymer paint. Each edition is finished individually so that no two are alike. The meticulous steel work along with his scrutinizing attention to detail allow these sculptures to take on a life.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wpb_row vc_row vc_row-fluid jupiter-donut- mk-fullwidth-true add-padding-0 attched-true js-master-row mk-full-content-true mk-in-viewport\" data-mk-full-width=\"true\" data-mk-full-width-init=\"true\" data-mk-stretch-content=\"true\">\n<div class=\"vc_col-sm-6 wpb_column column_container jupiter-donut- _ jupiter-donut-height-full\">\n<div id=\"box-33\" class=\"mk-custom-box jupiter-donut- hover-effect-image\">\n<div class=\"box-holder\">\n<p><strong>\u201cWho I Am Defines What I Create, And What I Create Is The Definition Of Who I Am\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":815,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"ngg_post_thumbnail":0},"class_list":["post-806","sites","type-sites","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","sitecats-art"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/che.camegone.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/sites\/806","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/che.camegone.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/sites"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/che.camegone.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/sites"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/che.camegone.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/che.camegone.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/815"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/che.camegone.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=806"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
