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.

i feel better already
This pretty much resembles the disappointing knobs I get off my backyard fruit trees each year. Maybe this summer I'll try gathering them directly onto a plate.
I just finally obtained Weathercraft. It is the opposite of crap. At one point I wondered, on Manhog's long walkabout, if the Unifactor could be mapped like Middle Earth. I assume it would defy cartography in the same way its denizens refuse spoken language.
Also sad to see that the Jerry Chickens' unending yard sale finally took a deadly toll on the Conical Jerry. I hope he may be revived so that my whittled totem remains up to date with the actual guy. Resurrection Ho, Conical Jerry!
If you don't want my apples, don't be shakin' my tree.
Hello,
As ever I'm a fan of your work.
Today I came across this

and had to agree with the blogger's comments about the likeness to your work. I wondered if you were aware of these sculptures.
Skullfruit is crunchy and full of calcium, do not underestimate it.
