Ukrainian-born Oleg Dergachov met Maxine Schacker and Tina Seemann of Max the Mutt Animation School last summer. He had heard of the school’s stellar reputation, its philosophy regarding the importance of old-fashioned art fundamentals and the high quality of the work that its graduates produce.
Oleg Dergachov joined the staff at Max the Mutt in September. This academic year he is teaching anatomy and an introductory cartooning course. Oleg, a recognized, award-winning cartoonist and fine artist who received his training in Russia, is delighted with the curriculum that Max the Mutt offers. Max the Mutt students were thrilled to find out the College had added yet another internationally recognized cartoonist to its faculty!
