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.

Very nicely done ... invites me right into this world.
And may I add that Maxfield Woodring is a simply fantastic name?
Wow, this is amazing. Can't wait for it to come out! Looks really cool.
Nice inking job. The acorn ain't fell far from the oak.
Please let us know when the book is published!
Better yet, the two of you should come down to Stumptown Comic Fest and sell copies!
Smooth.
Dang! That looks great.
(BTW, I spoke to you at the last Emerald City Comicon, you complimented my yellow and blue necktie and we talked about Fellini movies. I finally got up the nerve to comment on your blog, though I've been following it forever. Thanks so much for being such an inspiration to me! I'm going to stop sounding like such a fangirl now.)
I know this story and I probably know how it's gonna go too and it's so beautiful that I cry a little.
Aaah, the quietness is deafening. Jim is hard at work somewhere describing entities with his pen . . .
"I enlightened me so much."
Robots are such scintillating conversationalists.

Wonder if we can do images? Excuse me if this fails . . . it's a talking head.
This looks really good. What a great kid you have!
