Which One Did She Choose?

Some have asked to be informed as to which illustration "Stimey," over at stimeyland , chose for her prize. Her choice was "Barnyard Boogie," an illustration that I posted clear back in January 8, of '07. This is one of two illustrations that I drew for a contest that the local county fair was having to illustrate that year's theme. (More details at that post.)

Stimey made an interesting choice in that this particular drawing is larger than I normally draw my cartoons. It is an 11x14, rather than the usual 8x10. So, she got the most bang for her buck - or non-buck as the case may be. Thanks again Jean, oops! sorry, Stimey, for particapating in the give-away.

(That's the first time that I did the strike through thingy. I learned it over in the comments on Dawn's blog.)

Here's something that I drew a couple of years ago. I live where fishing is king and at the time I was trying to drawing a few cartoons that people might like to purchase. I have a few fishing toons that I've drawn. This is one of them.


If you're interested in purchasing a print for yourself you might be surprised how cheaply I price them. I find that most artist over price their work. While I prefer to actually sell my stuff - rather than let it sit in a box somewhere.

Barnyard Boogie Again

This one is the other Barnyard Boogie drawings that I did for the Curry County Fair logo contest. As I stated in the earlier post, they wanted to used all three of my submissions. I never got to actually see this one in use.

It's about time for the contest to come around again. I remember reading about this year's theme. I don't remember what it is, but I do remembering thinking that it was pretty lame, (my apologies to the person who submitted the idea.)

I drew this one because I didn't think I liked the previous one, at first. After coloring that one in, I decided that perhaps I should go back and finish my first attempt. I liked it more after I had colored it in.

What do you think?

Barnyard Boogie


I drew this for a contest conducted by the local country fair. They wanted a logo for their advertisements of the fair. Considering the theme of the fair, "Barnyard Boogie", I thought it was begging for a cartoon. I ended up sending in three drawings and they said that they wanted to use all of them. This is one of them.

I was suppose to win a free t-shirt and passes to the fair. I never saw the shirt and couldn't find the time to go to the fair. But my in-laws did get to attend the rodeo for free. So, that's something at least.

I'll probably try again this year. At least I get to see my work in print on the program cover - that is, if I were to win again.

What do you think?
