Tooth Fairy

I'm doin' a sequel...

Creative Characters 2017

My collaboration for the Creative Characters company's colorful Christmas card this year.

Holiday Party

Merry Christmas!

Barney Fife

Don Knotts' classic character from the ANDY GRIFFITH SHOW. Lawbreakers beware!

National Cookie Day

Because that's what Dec. 4th is for some reason.

Cold Prank

It's time for holiday cheer! Or whatever.

Clodzilla.

The heck with it.

Senator Mitch McConnell

For some strange reason I decided to take a stab at drawing Senator Mitch McConnell on my Wacom tablet.I know most usually say he resembles a turtle, but to me he seems more like the dried-up old farmer in the painting AMERICAN GOTHIC.

That Old Adage

The Swedish Chef, Gonger from the "Monster Foodie" segments from SESAME STREET, and Angelo from the (very) short lived series IN THE KITCHEN WITH KAT KORA.

Sesame Street 48

Sesame Street began its 48th season.

Dr. Boober

And what two would make a better fit, either way?

Fishing

Obvious joke.

Happy Hallogreen!

You'd understand if you trick-or-treated in a swamp.

Walking the Dog

When you and your pet need the exercise.

Prairie Dogged

SOMETHING to get into this month, anyway...

Kermit Goes Michigan

You didn't think I meant geographically, did you?

Pennygrouch

Not that I've seen Stephen King's IT, but....

Happy 81st, Jim Henson

Today would have been Jim Henson's 81st birthday. This image is based on Jim's non-muppet short film TIME PIECE, during which he paints a live elephant pink.

Marvin the Martian

He has an announcement...

It's Autumn

And you know what that means...

Fitness Gear

An idea I just had to get off my chest.

Flavor of the Month

It's the end of Summer....

GLANK

A recent commission I did for PAUL RUDOLPH, two-time Emmy winner for his music and sound work on SESAME STREET. Paul also has his own percussionist band called GLANK, which makes unique music with found objects. These shirts will be on sale at DRAGON CON in Atlanta, Ga. this weekend, or you can buy by contacting Paul via
www.glankglankglank.com.

It's Clobberink Time

It's Jack Kirby's 100th Birthday around the time of this post, and he briefly animated for Max Fleischer on Popeye so....why not combine two of the most famous clobberers? (I'm sure a number of Kirby Fans are screaming "BLASPHEMY" at me for this..)

Popeye In Navy Whites.

That Famous style.

Bert Goes To The Doctor

Amazed he hasn't had a stroke after putting up with all of Ernie's pranks by now.

Rest In Peace, June Foray

Classic cartoon voice actress JUNE FORAY passed away this past week at the grand old age of 99. Ms. Foray was probably best known for as the voices of ROCKY the flying squirrel and Pottsylvanian agent NATASHA FATALE on the BULLWINKLE SHOW as well as many others.

Biff Philosophy

I don't understand this one. But if I did, it wouldn't be philosophy.

The Jim Henson Exhibition Gallery Review

The Jim Henson Exhibition, a PERMANENT gallery of Jim Henson art, films. props, and of course puppets from all aspects of his career, has opened at the Museum of the Moving Image at New York City. I was down there for the Kickstarter reception day and I found it just no less than amazing. If you ever travel to NYC , this is a must-see. 

Good Luck Steve Whitmire

It was announced today that Steve Whitmire, who performed Kermit the Frog since Jim Henson passed away, has left the Muppets. Reasons why are unknown at this time. Steve did a fantastic job with his own characters like Rizzo and Wembley, as well as brilliantly carry on iconic ones like Jim Henson's Kermit and Richard Hunt's Beaker. The best to him on his future endeavors. You will be missed, Steve.

Uncle WHOoge

Given that David Tenant will be voicing Scrooge McDuck in the upcoming DUCKTALES revival...

Herry Potter

Face it, this joke would have to come around eventually...

No News - APRIL FOOL'S!!

The TOUGHPIGS Muppet fanzine did its annual April Fool's day special edition with a number of funny "articles" with a "no news" theme. My contribution, as usual, was new artwork, specially the piece below which was used on the logo. The second image below was my original concept for the FIRST piece!
