He painted backgrounds for Disney's "Sleeping Beauty" and "Lady and the Tramp" plus others. Walt Disney noticed Earle's work after Earle created the avant-garde 'look' for the Oscar/Cannes-award-winning short "Toot, Whistle, Plunk and Boom". Earle was already an established artist at 13, when he held his first exhibition in France. At 23, Earle sold his first watercolor to the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. In the 1940s he painted over 800 landscapes for Christmas cards.
