My bookcover Mod Squad: Photographer David Johnston and Designer Jada d’Lee… you are image magicians, artfully rendering while coaxing me down the right path. You always lead me to exactly where I wanted to be. A million thank you’s would never be enough.
Michael Senich you make a delightful muse. Thank you for always putting a smile on my face.
Thank you Flavia Viotti Siqueria and Meire Dias of Bookcase Literary Agency whose love for my passionate artist really lit the fire under Work of Art. Thank you for believing in me.

Love and appreciation for sweet friends Azu and Laura, and beta CJ who were by my side at the beginning of Maxfield’s journey.

Ruth Clampett, daughter of legendary animation director, Bob Clampett, has spent a lifetime surrounded by art and animation. A graduate of Art Center College of Design, her careers have included graphic design, photography, VP of Design for WB Stores and teaching photography at UCLA. She now runs her own studio as the fine art publisher for Warner Bros. where she’s had the opportunity to know and work with many of the greatest artists in the world of animation and comics.
The Work of Art Trilogy
is Ruth’s third publishing endeavor, following
Animate Me
and
Mr. 365
. She lives in Los Angeles and is heavily supervised by her teenage daughter, lovingly referred to as Snarky, who loves art and visiting museums as much as her mom.
