About Me
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.

I am involved with a large-scale sculpture project that is based in part on your work; I will post photos of our efforts in June.

DAD GUM, JIM. Those are some nifty, neat-o pops.
Fine craftsmanship. Lot of work.
Sweet! I just bought a new Moleskine... Now I know what to do with it! ;)
Crude? I wouldn't say so! These are quite amazing, thanks for posting them!!!
Amazing and beautiful! I've been diggin' Woodring for many years now, and this makes total sense. Hi work has always seemed about to "emerge" into the "real world"...and now it really does.
I'd love to see an entire book of same. Or as long as we're fooling around with 3D, how about some 3D comics?
Dig the Moleskine as well. I just finished a huge long drawing using one of their "Japanese Fan Books":

Always one step ahead of the rest of us! The drawings hold up on their own. You're redefining what a sketchbook can be. I bet the cutting was tedious. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for sharing these. I love the what you are doing with your moleskine.
Criminey! Will this inspire me to pick up my own dreaded moleskine, or continue to be intimidated by it?!
Hey, a fellow Seattlite! Great work. The first image has a lot of dimension.
Superb work!
Regards from Italy.

These are sweeeet! Besides being pop-o fun I'm just digging the line work. Makes me happy anyhow.

Wow.. the top one especially is absolutely stunning.
Fantastic work!
I'm a little late to discover this. You may consider my mind to be suitably blown.
Best wishes,

Dear Jim, sending you a link to a YouTube video of a "A fluorocarbon-based ferrofluid, with about 400-G saturation magnetization and low field magnetic susceptibility of 3, is placed within a glass Hele-Shaw cell of 1.1-mm gap…etc." (URL: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A5OhZ9wT568&mode=related&search=). WHY? Because it reminded me so much of your special world.
