Early life

Born in Charlotte, North Carolina, Lovelace is a self-taught cartoonist. He presently lives in Connecticut.

Works

Lovelace's Flash animations are featured on the Flash animation website Newgrounds. Retarded Animal Babies is one of the top draws at Newgrounds, with more than 3 million hits to date. It is notorious for foul language and adult situations[vague]. Other flash cartoons produced by Lovelace include Sci-Fi Guys and Jot and Jab.

Lovelace has produced music videos for several artists, most notably "Weird Al" Yankovic. The video for Yankovic's song "Virus Alert" was created by Lovelace, for which he received a gold record.[2][3] Five characters from Retarded Animal Babies make cameo appearances in the video.

Other websites using his animations include Fark (including a five-part cartoon about "Farkman", a dim-witted superhero who thinks in Fark article tags)[2] and Camp Chaos.

He also produced artwork and animation for advertising and CD-ROM games, for clients including Paramount Pictures, Wonka Candies, Quest For Camelot by Warner Bros., Animaniacs, Fisher Price, National Lampoon, and the educational JumpStart series. His promotional comic strips for Hartford, CT rock station 106.9 WCCC run on an approximate monthly schedule in local CT publications.
