Back to school

This week I will be showing my illos from the Delaware Gazette that I did for the back to school special sections. Here's number one!

Feed the kitty

Here's another old one that was done as a mag cartoon for a short lived recurring feature, was updated for a greeting card and the original was purchased by a cartoonist from Belgium.

Moron

I've been getting several inquiries again about which president this was intended to refer to. If you buy a print or a tee it can be any one you want. (It was done in 2007, that's all I'm sayin'.)
This is the first pencil draft.

Old toon

Remember Elian? Janet Reno? Hiding out in the closet while SWAT FEDS come to serve a warrant from CHILDREN'S SERVICES? Bubba's fondness for young stuff? Of course you don't. You forget so quickly.

An old cartoon from Hustler Humor

Which, incidentally was also the gag for a New Yorker cartoon published not too long ago. That has happened at least two times. One just cannot grasp how these two seemingly disparate magazines would share such a connection.

More line art

These last two are line art drawings I send in for the initial edits to the magazine. They don't have grey tones or colors as they are not yet picked for publication. I would have thought someone would have come up with this gag by now but as it is I'm the first one, as far as I know.

What my final wishes would be

I think Medicare would pretty much cover the whole expense.

Our Lady of Ignorance

Teen Jesus

Teens are probably teens no matter who they are.

Shrunken heads

Graduation Dwarves

Here's one for the grads. Should be available by next spring or sooner if you graduate on the off semester.

Sunday posting

I may be out fishing tomorrow so here's another dwarf card. I'm working today so it may as well be a weekday and hence you should get a cartoon.

A moment of music for a fallen hero

The world lost another of it's guitar legends today. Les Paul was one of a kind. Never to be repeated. Those two are probably jamming among the clouds as we speak. Adios, Lester.

7 Dwarves of Fatherhood

Colored this yesterday. It's to be a greeting card. I resemble all of these pretty much. Which father doesn't? Coming soon to a Target near you, I hope.

Attack of the Giant Ants

A Sunday strip from the unsuccessful syndication attempt of a couple years ago. I know, the joke is lame and the drawing is crappy... probably why the wise folk at the syndies didn't wish to pick it up. They are so smart those people.

Is it too early for Christmas toons?

I would say no since they are asking for Christmas cartoons and card ideas. Do you know how hard it is thinking of holiday stuff in the middle of summer? I'm sitting here in gym shorts with the AC blasting and fishing on my mind and they want Santa jokes.

Bo the first 100 days

And he did it all without Cheeney wiping his butt for him.

Extra Toons

I'll be taking a two day break from the studio so I'll post a couple of extra toons to get you through the week.

Seven Dwarves series

I'm adding a half dozen more dwarf themes to the series in the coming days. These are greeting cards. There seems no end to them as yet.

Change you can flush

Not exactly timely but good advice anytime. Sorry about the delay but Monday is fishing day if I can possibly manage it.
