Curtis Jobling is an author and illustrator based in the UK. Working in publishing and animation he is possibly most (in)famously known as the designer of the BAFTA winning BBC show Bob The Builder, as well as creator of Frankenstein's Cat. Early work in animation included model and puppet painting on Wallace & Gromit's A Close Shave and Tim Burton's Mars Attacks! He's also the creator/director/producer of Nickelodeon's Curious Cow interstitials, a series of animated shorts featuring the varied and hilarious deaths of a bewildered bovine. As a published author and illustrator of children's books, Curtis's works include Dinosaurs After Dark (with Jonathan Emmett), Skeleton in the Closet (with Alice Schertle), My Daddy, Cheeky Monkey and perhaps his most notorious character Frankenstein's Cat, now an animated series in its own right commissioned by the BBC and sold to broadcasters worldwide.

Further to his work in film, animation and publishing, Curtis produces art shows for galleries including the ongoing acclaimed Biteneck Beatniks series of paintings. His work sells the world over. The Biteneck Beatniks are currently in production with TOY2R as a series of collectible vinyl art toys, as well as an animated series.
