My name is jane denise thornton – aka jdt character girl … I have over 30 years’ experience as a Character Designer, specialising in character licensing, product design and merchandising where I have worked with a multitude of toy companies.

I’ve worked on all the major licenses, to name just a few; Garfield, The Simpsons, Disney, Warner Bros, Smurfs and Dora ... In the late 90’s I worked in an animation studio where I developed skills as a producer, writer, storyboard artist, 3D character designer and an animation director - combining my knowledge as a trained actor with my illustration and writing skills.
