When I was three years old I drew my first cartoon character, and haven't stopped drawing since. I grew up in the San Francisco Bay area where my family has owned and operated Jeffrey's Toys for three generations. My Mom and Dad supported my love of drawing, and today I work at a major animation studio near San Francisco where I have been helping to create world famous animated stories and characters for over 15 years! I continue to share my love for drawing by teaching kids and adults all over the world, how they too can turn their doodles into cartoons. Check out my books, and create your own original cartoon characters today!

Handcrafted with Pride in Jersey City, NJ Since 1889
Handcrafted with Pride in our Factory in Jersey City, New Jersey USA
General Pencil Company's art and craft pencils come to you from our factory in Jersey City, New Jersey. We believe in quality, tradition, value, and the fun of creating. We take pride in handcrafting quality pencils and artist materials using traditional methods passed down for six generations. Our history dates back to 1860 when Edward Weissenborn began the first pencil factory in the USA. In 1889, Edward and his son, Oscar A., began what is now General Pencil Company. Still family owned and operated, our goal is to create consistent, quality products in a sustainable manner for artists of all levels. We thank you for choosing our fine art and craft products for your creative talents and enjoyment
