News and views from the Dutch Uncle of dreamland.
Now children, during the summer when you are home from school you may find your house to be a very different place. You must knock loudly before you enter any room and you must be very brave.

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.

Great painting!
Any Chance you could post an enlargment of the painting on the wall? Looks Biblical!

Is this for sale?

Your oil paintings are really fantastic, Jim. This scene just gave me an odd idea, what if the door to the left showed the outside of the room to actually be the landscape from the painting on the wall?
Was this influenced by an infamous crime scene photo?
Your picture is much nicer to look at, of course.
I think I detect a horribly raunchy joke in the title and caption here. You must knock very loudly children!!!
