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.

Delightful!
An unusually non-terrifying Whim.
Hello DL
My first time on here. This is an introductory comment!
Seems we share some interests and I would like to exchange links to return?
Best wishes
I was looking at some of William Morris' glass sculptures and I thought of your work. Especially his frogs. You both have odd looking animals interacting with these bizzare space-shapes. I think he's on the West Coast too.
Egad! The legendary Horn of a Dilemma!
It's the smelliest sight he ever heard.
Great! Psychedelic-Alpenhorn!!
"Hullo? Is this thing on?"
Like the one-eyed undertaker, he blows a futile horn...so it's a good thing Frank has an ear trumpet!
Very nice piece.
The little guy will make beautiful music with that giant tuba!
