About Me
- Name: Jim Woodring
- Location: Seattle, Washington, United States
I was born in the foothills of the San Gabriel Mountains in Southern California and enjoyed an exciting childhood full of poetry and paroniria among the snakes, rats and tarantulas of that enchanted realm. I eventually grew into an inquisitive bearlike man who has had three exciting careers; garbage collector, merry-go-round-operator and cartoonist. Some of my work is collected in THE BOOK OF JIM, THE FRANK BOOK and SEEING THINGS (all published by Fantagraphics) and in various toys, fabrics, prints and urban legends. Thank you for your interest.

Hi Jim. Just wanted to tell you I was very happy to receive one of your original drawings as a 30th birthday present. Thank you for selling that original to Jen, and thanks also for starting this fine blog.
Hurrahhhh!!! Will wait till June with $$. Subscribed!!
Lllllllllll!
I have Frank, Pupshaw, and Pushpaw on a shelf in my cubicle.
Frank is posed so that he appears to be glancing over his shoulder at a picture of a Wiwaxia tacked to the wall.
fantastic that you've got a blog! it's interesting to see an artists trail of work over time- reallly cool stuff Jim.
whiiiiine!!!
You make me look like a ninny.
It's a about time you got a blog!
Everthing looks cool as a toy.
stunning beauties they are ~ and they'll match the animated dvd too! ;p
cheers :)
love the toys... great stuff all round, very nice doodling style ;)
Unfamilar with your work until the other day when I bought a Crazy Newt figure on the internet. Now I'm totally enthralled and want more!
These look amazing. And since Frank has a such a published life outside of color, black and white seems like a natural.
oh my, they are wonderful! ;o]
