As an Emmy Award-winning voice actor, world-renowned as the voice of Bart Simpson and dozens of other animated characters, Nancy Cartwright has entertained audiences for decades with her incredible range and versatility.
In addiction to being the top female voice actor in the industry, Cartwright has emerged as a fine artist, creating both as a sculptor and a painter
She has created dozens of reverse-style paintings on Lucite, a technique that dates back thousands of years. Her love of animation motivated her to duplicate this age-old technique that was popularized in 1937, with Disney's Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.
Much of Cartwright's artwork in animated in nature and inspired by Picasso and Warhol. Her use of vibrant color in creating colorful pop art, spans a variety of collections ranging from spotlighting societal issues, to her love of animated characters, to a myriad of historical freedom fighters. Her work was been featured in numerous galleries and exhibitions, with one of her many sculptures, a bronze creation of Bart Simpson , is prominently featured in front of the News Corp building in Midtown Manhattan. Another version is permanently on display at the USC School of Cinematic Arts.
With a wide array of subject matter and forms, Cartwtight says there is always one theme she seeks to imbue into her work: to simply do her part to help brighten the world.
