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. For mugs, t-shirts, and other products visit my gift shop at www.zazzle.com/jcrowtherart* (be sure to include the *).

Stupid Pet Tricks


I had the most extraordinary experience today. I was at a big box store buying a piece of electronics. I was torn between two versions of an item, and the salesman was doing a hard sell to convince me to buy the less expensive one because he thought it would be a better deal. "You can tell," he said to me, "I'm not working on commission."

John... entirely get where you're coming from... has nothing to do with cups and everything to do with getting your stuff out there. I see where Paul Jackson now has over 300,000 products on zazzle. I wonder how it's going for him? Artists have to do whatever it takes to stay in the game in a particularly tough market place. Clearly. If Paul Jackson is now doing it. Feel sure there was a time his paintings would run out the door. These days people are back to essentials (seems) if you can't eat it people aren't buying. Maybe we could become sandwich artists? (grin)
