Outing
Reading about President Trump’s intrepid excursion to St. John’s Church earlier this week, and seeing some accompanying images and videos, prompted my brain to pull up an old Far Side cartoon, Washington crossing the street.
I decided to pay tribute to the master, Gary Larsen, and put my own spin on his cartoon, inspired by POTUS’s recent outing. The resulting comic is below.
Climbing
I’m much too large of a human being to have any success (or enjoyment) with rock climbing. But I have felt both the elation of scrambling up the cliff of life as well as the terror of wondering if I’ve run out of handholds. This doodle emerged while messing around with Procreate.
Talk to the tree
Know thyself. Or knot.
Silence
I wish I knew…
Arbor Day Archive
Old cartoon with some added color. Fact: if you sniff between the bark plates on a Jeffrey pine you get a nice vanilla smell.
Log…eye
Oh, Janice…
New Yorker Rejection
This is my first official rejection from The New Yorker. I submitted this cartoon way back in October of last year. So it appears their review time can take up to four months–wow!
I’ve submitted a couple others already and I’m trying to complete a batch of ten to send off at the same time. I think I’m better understanding the style and sense of humor they are looking for. We’ll see.
Anyway, this cartoon idea is a bit out of date…since we have pretty much moved into a new political season. But I still like it.
