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.

The only thing I wanted for Christmas was The Frank Book.
I didn't get it.
Hello Jim!! Nice to meet you in internet!! ( a virtual kiss for you)
I´m a little comic artist from a coruña (north of spain) and FRANK was a revelation for me and my friends. I never see nothing similar. Psicodelia, paralel worlds and eternal vital curls. Some characters to cause in me very conflicting feelings. The pig for example is a complex character who make me feel repugnance, hate but feel sorry too.
Frank for me is a modern philosophy!!!
sorry, my english is very poor!
It´s a luck that frank don´t speak!!!!!
thanks!!
Oh, Jim. One could do worse than to die and awake in such a place. I ache to feel such clean sun on the skin of me, to know nothing and hope for everything. What must it be like to feel the grass and breathe the air, unsullied? I think the first thing I'd do is find some berries and feed them to that smiling Moatfloater, one by one. Plop. Plop. Plop.

It still surprises me how much your jivas resemble the quaternion julia set for (math nonsense): c=-1
looks something like this
Oh, and for a little more details about the mathematics of quaternion julia sets, look here. (there's an image of a rapid prototyped model down the page a bit that is amazing)
