I enjoyed the artist statement and bio as well as the art. It's a shame he seems to show his work almost exclusively in CA.

The Bush playing Napolean one is great!

So is giddyup.

Some of his paintings remind me of the art on the back cover of Mad - the illustrations that you would fold in a certain way to reveal new images.

iconomy, I think Al Jaffee did those. And I totally agree.

He's great. I'm surprised he hasn't been posted here before. Worthy fodder. Good one.

Thanks for this, OmieWise. I love The Mad Tea Party, with the tank teapots and all those sheep waiting for a piece of the cake.
