News and views from the Dutch Uncle of dreamland.
posted by Jim Woodring at 10:48 AM
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.

Another fantastic painting. There has been so much good stuff going on here lately... any chance a print could be made of this one?
Really good stuff. I'm-a minded to trade in the car for an original someday.
Another salmon swimming up the wrong stream is rescued - ah, but a second too late. No blame.
Hey Jim - I thought you'd really like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y2tP9s8y2Ic
trust me, I'm not a spammer...I just wasn't sure how else to pass it on to you!
When I lived in Calgary before the 1988 Olympics and took phone calls from the U.S., most of them thought I'd said "Calvary, Alberta."
