Your work is so remarkable, both conceptually and technically. Do you ever publicly discuss technical matters (what kind of paper/charcoal/brushes/paints you use, watercolor techniques, recommended books, etc.)? I'm guessing no, but then again I never thought you'd start a blog, so maybe there's hope...
after reading Dael's comments, I had to go back and look. I must say, no one depicts clouds like Jim Woodring. Accurate to the point of being unnerving. Jim this blog is fantastic. - Nick
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.

Man, I would LOVE to see a vinyl figure of that guy on the hill, in the background, on the left.
I can see a rabbit in those clouds!

I have missed seeing your weirdnesses in The Stranger. My dreams are almost normal now.
