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 am intrigued to see the fruition of this ballsy project - hopefully in video!
awesome! I'd really like to see it on video as well
The shape of the holder reminds me of your Jiva drawings. Is there a connection?
Hey Jim, Do you want to motorize this for your next international show a long way from home? I know a guy that lived down in Fortuna CA, that has a great track record at long distance engineering. Nice pen and great idea!

Well to be very frank,I didn't got any sensible point in this post.
It will make its maiden voyage before the hungry eyes of an audience.
Its title had become a household phrase referring to the centres of government and power after Snow coined it in his earlier novel, Homecomings.
