About Mark Guthrie
‘A diet of Asterix and Tintin books, inbetween cow milkings in my youth in Strathmerton, Victoria, led to a Bachelor of Visual Arts majoring in Illustration at Griffith University, Brisbane, Australia.
Post-university led to a backpacking/graphic art stint for ITV Channel 4 in the UK, some UK cow milking then animation with Walt Disney Animation Australia in Sydney, where I worked on most Disney 2D features that have a ‘2’ in their title. To complete the circle – sort of, it was back to Brisbane to chase the career of a freelance Illustrator/Cartoonist.
‘T.H.’, the sign-off on my cartoons, stands for Tackhead. A parental-administered haircut to a naïve, trusting 10-year-old, gone wrong.
The hair has grown back – fortunately – but the nickname stuck.
