An Intimate Look At Holidays

Slippery When Wet - Holiday Snow People In Love
There are many facets to the holidays, some being intimate and personal rather than social or commercial. I created this drawing for people wanting to send a more personal holiday message. These snow people are available for purchase on greeting cards and other items in my stores at Cafepress and Zazzle. Happy Holidays, everyone. And don't forget I offer 20% off all custom artwork with a holiday theme.

Updating Traditional Ideas

Christmas Santa - Objects In Mirror Are Closer Than You Think
Sometimes it's really hard to put a new spin on an old idea, but it's not impossible. Christmas is sneaking up on us again and I wanted a new cartoon to make that announcement for 2013. So I borrowed something old and something new to come up with this. This image is already listed in the Holiday departments of my stores, and I also want to remind everyone about my non-stop holiday special. I always offer 20% off any custom artwork or caricatures with a holiday theme, 365 days a year.

Unfair Animal Names - Simple Can Be Funny

Unfair Animal Names - by Gary Larson, The Far Side
I didn't draw this cartoon, Gary Larson did. I've forgiven him, though, even after this 'unfair' reference to my name. Gary Larson's 'Far Side' was one of the best cartoon series ever created. Unfortunately for us, Gary retired in 1995. But I since bought all his books and I still enjoy them. I even had this particular cartoon on my office wall for years. Anyone not familiar with Gary's work should look into it. A few of his cartoons can be Googled on the web and his compilation books are still in the book stores.

Pure Michigan Bumper Sticker

Pure Michigan and University Of Michigan Wolverines Bumper Sticker
I maintain internet stores at both Cafepress and Zazzle to sell my cartoons, caricatures and cartoon logos on retail products. The inconsistency between Cafepress and Zazzle often bewilders me. Each has occasionally taken their turn at removing items from my store, supposedly as copyright infringement, but it appears they sometimes just overreact more from paranoia. But each has also accepted images that were rejected by the other. If I've learned anything, it's to not give up. When one chickens out of accepting an image then the other will likely accept it.

This 'Pure Michigan' bumper sticker is only the most recent of my cartoons to be handled differently by the servers. Cafepress accepts it, Zazzle does not. For interested persons, I offer this cartoon in my Creative Quickies store on bumper stickers, magnetic signs, and car window flags. Click here to visit the product page.

Creative Quickies On Twitter

I opened a Twitter account a couple years ago but never really started using it. At the time, I seemed to have everything covered without it. But since I ditched Facebook, and since Twitter now easily allows posting images, I have begun displaying my art on Twitter @creativequickie. Twitter only accepts 15 characters in user names so I had to drop the 's' from the end of mine. Otherwise, it's the same name. I only post fun stuff, with an occasional announcement when I run business related specials, and I never collect information or spam anyone. Stop by. I left a light on for you.
