Cartoons, cartoons, cartoons.... John Crowther's Cartoon Odyssey

I think of it as The Fool's Journey. I've been asked who the "fool" is. It's me, but in the classical sense of the court jester. Only the fool was allowed to tell the king of his follies. All cartoons are available as prints or originals, framed or unframed, through my website or e-mail.

Gripe Therapy

I visited my friend Ellie Sethman at the Art-A-Fair in Laguna Beach the other day. Ellie exhibits her beautiful work there every summer, and I always look forward to my annual pilgrimage. She told me a wonderful story about a family with a dog and cat who were good friends. The dog lived in the house, while the cat stayed mostly in the barn, where it had the responsibility of expunging rats. When the cat had kittens she decided to move them into the house, one by one. The dog very gingerly took each kitten and moved them back to the barn.

John so great you got to see Ellie at the Art Affair and simply can't believe it's been another year! Love the cartoon... and the story. I could see that scenario playing out and had a good chuckle.
