'''Dean L. Norton''', now known as '''DLNorton''', is a [[cartoonist]]/[[artist]]. He drew and inked ''[[Desert Storms]]'', a story written by [[Michael Hirtes]] and published in three parts in ''[[Genus]]'' #27-8 and #39, but gave up doing it mainly due to creative burnout. Getting tired of comic books, he decided to pursue other ventures, mainly [[Wikipedia:Kustom kulture|kustom kulture]]/pinstriping/[[Wikipedia:Hot rod|hot rod]] art within the "low brow" art scene.

He was born [[July]] 7, 1962 in Evroux, [[France]] to an [[American]] born [[mother]] and [[father]]. His [[father]] was in the USAF at the time. He only lived in France for 5 months before his [[family]] was shipped back to the states. He also has a younger [[brother]] Alan, who's also known to be an [[artist]], but didn't persue it like his older [[brother]], Dean.

Dean started [[drawing]] at an early age and [[animals]] and objects of [[technological]] interest populated his art. His art started to blossom in [[high school]] and by the time he was in [[college]], it started to turn towards the [[female]] form in galactic proportions. This was also about the time he discovered [[Japanese animation]] and the particular crowd that came with it.

By 1986, he and a small group of [[friends]] started up the [[Wikipedia:Inland Empire, California|Inland Empire]] ,[[Wikipedia:Riverside, California|Riverside, CA.]]/[[Wikipedia:San Bernardino, California |San Bernardino, CA.]] chapter of the [[Cartoon/Fantasy Organization]], and with that, he started a small zine mostly dedicated to [[anime]], and [[animation]] in general, but did break boundries once in a while and touch on unrelated subjects. It was also by this account ''(around 1991)'' that well known [[cartoonist]], [[Joshua Quagmire]] ''(of [[Cutey Bunny]] fame)'' saw some of his art in this small [[APA]] and got in touch with [[DLNorton]]. From there, Dean cut his first tooth in the [[comicbook]] industry doing various ink jobs for [[Joshua Quagmire]] and attending the various [[conventions]] when and where he could. One being the [[San Diego Comic Convention]] which he'd usually attend with his late buddy, [http://dlnorton30000.tripod.com/ Al Davis]
.

From 1992 to around 2000, he did submit work to the various indie [[comicbook]] [[publishers]] and invariably, got published. Some of his better work was published by [[Radio Comix]], and his favorite comic that he liked doing ''(but rarely did enough of it)'' was ''Blazin' Charlotte'', a WWII based comic ''(series?)'' that mostly ran in Radio's ''[[anthology]]'', [[Furrlough]].

It was also around this time that he got involved with another well known [[APA]], [[Richard Chandler]]'s [[Gallery]]. He was published in almost 25 +/- issues before the zine finally folded in around 2004 due to lack of talent submissions and the burgeoning [[internet]] journal ''([[blog]])'' culture.

== Where Is Dean Now? ==

Currently, He lives with his wife, Colleen in [[Wikipedia:Colorado|Colorado]]. He persues his art but less so, only to do big pieces on canvas when he finds time and surfing the internet and doing the rare art piece here and there for his [[Wikipedia:deviantArt|devinatArt]] site or hanging around his [[Wikipedia:MySpace|MySpace]] site. He's also heavily into [[Wikipedia:bonsai|bonsai]], but wishes sometimes that the talent for bonsai would match his talent for cartooning and art.

== On The Contrary ==

Dean does not consider himself "furry" or part of the [[fandom]] as a whole, but rather as an ordinary artist. This can be debatable, but would take too much effort and expertise to consider the "otherwise".

71.208.3.26: /* Where Is Dean Now? */

'''Dean L. Norton''', now known as '''DLNorton''', is a [[cartoonist]]/[[artist]]. He drew and inked ''[[Desert Storms]]'', a story written by [[Michael Hirtes]] and published in three parts in ''[[Genus]]'' #27-8 and #39, but gave up doing it mainly due to creative burnout. Getting tired of comic books, he decided to pursue other ventures, mainly [[Wikipedia:Kustom kulture|kustom kulture]]/pinstriping/[[Wikipedia:Hot rod|hot rod]] art within the "low brow" art scene.

He was born [[July]] 7, 1962 in Evroux, [[France]] to an [[American]] born [[mother]] and [[father]]. His [[father]] was in the USAF at the time. He only lived in France for 5 months before his [[family]] was shipped back to the states. He also has a younger [[brother]] Alan, who's also known to be an [[artist]], but didn't persue it like his older [[brother]], Dean.

Dean started [[drawing]] at an early age and [[animals]] and objects of [[technological]] interest populated his art. His art started to blossom in [[high school]] and by the time he was in [[college]], it started to turn towards the [[female]] form in galactic proportions. This was also about the time he discovered [[Japanese animation]] and the particular crowd that came with it.

By 1986, he and a small group of [[friends]] started up the [[Wikipedia:Inland Empire, California|Inland Empire]] ,[[Wikipedia:Riverside, California|Riverside, CA.]]/[[Wikipedia:San Bernardino, California |San Bernardino, CA.]] chapter of the [[Cartoon/Fantasy Organization]], and with that, he started a small zine mostly dedicated to [[anime]], and [[animation]] in general, but did break boundries once in a while and touch on unrelated subjects. It was also by this account ''(around 1991)'' that well known [[cartoonist]], [[Joshua Quagmire]] ''(of [[Cutey Bunny]] fame)'' saw some of his art in this small [[APA]] and got in touch with [[DLNorton]]. From there, Dean cut his first tooth in the [[comicbook]] industry doing various ink jobs for [[Joshua Quagmire]] and attending the various [[conventions]] when and where he could. One being the [[San Diego Comic Convention]] which he'd usually attend with his late buddy, [http://dlnorton30000.tripod.com/ Al Davis]
.

From 1992 to around 2000, he did submit work to the various indie [[comicbook]] [[publishers]] and invariably, got published. Some of his better work was published by [[Radio Comix]], and his favorite comic that he liked doing ''(but rarely did enough of it)'' was ''Blazin' Charlotte'', a WWII based comic ''(series?)'' that mostly ran in Radio's ''[[anthology]]'', [[Furrlough]].

It was also around this time that he got involved with another well known [[APA]], [[Richard Chandler]]'s [[Gallery]]. He was published in almost 25 +/- issues before the zine finally folded in around 2004 due to lack of talent submissions and the burgeoning [[internet]] journal ''([[blog]])'' culture.

== Where Is Dean Now? ==

Currently, He lives with his wife, Colleen in [[Wikipedia:Colorado|Colorado]]. He persues his art but less so, only to do big pieces on canvas when he finds time and surfing the internet and doing the rare art piece here and there for his [[Wikipedia:deviantArt|devinatArt]] site or hanging around [[Wikipedia:SomethingAwful |SomethingAwful]] or his [[Wikipedia:MySpace|MySpace]] site. He's also heavily into [[Wikipedia:bonsai|bonsai]], but wishes sometimes that the talent for bonsai would match his talent for cartooning and art.

== On The Contrary ==

Dean does not consider himself "furry" or part of the [[fandom]] as a whole, but rather as an ordinary artist. This can be debatable, but would take too much effort and expertise to consider the "otherwise".

But someday...he will '''return'''...
