Peter de Sève, a native New Yorker, grew up drawing. He was inspired by his collection of comic books, science fiction and fantasy illustration.
Today he is famed for his illustration work and cover art to The New Yorker since 1993. He is also undoubtably one of the leading character designers in today’s animated-film industry, and has created unforgettable characters for such block-busters such as “The Hunchback of Notre Dame”, “Mulan”, “Tarzan”, “Finding Nemo” or “Robots”.

Peter was the sole designer on “Ice Age” and its sequels, yet his character “Scrat” clearly overshadows the entire cast and turned into a world-wide icon.
