Was it Jesse who asked to see this caricature by Tex Avery? It's a drawing of a close friend of his but I don't know anything about her. She's holding a pipe, is in her bare feet and wearing a simple dress which makes me think this was done in the 6os.
A couple of theory Corner readers asked to see more sketchbook drawings of my daughter. I'll put some up when I can but I thought someone out there might be interested in seeing a picture of my son when he was a baby (he's in graduate school now). It's by John Krisfaluci.
I hope I'm not boring anybody with this sentimental father-and-son picture. I don't know why my tongue looks like something out of a horror movie. Maybe that's John's way of saying I had bad breath that night. My kid was fully clothed but John drew him as if with X-ray vision. The anatomy on the back is remakable!
that's a really crazy john drawing
ReplyDeletejohn seems to be such a nice guy, your son must love that drawing, right? Right??
ReplyDeleteOohhh.... I'll have to second the request for more sketchbook drawings of ALL of your kids!
ReplyDeleteWow. You're so right. Amazing detail on the baby's back! (Those rolls of fat look so much cuter on babies than adults!)
WOW! Look at the baby's HEAD! It's Baby Elephant Man!! John Hurt would be proud!
ReplyDeleteHmmm...say Ed...you worked at "Tiny Toons" right? Think you can post whatever you drew for that show? I have fond memories watching it on Nickelodeon.
ReplyDeleteHA! Thanks for posting these funny sketches!
ReplyDeleteSweet! Where did you get a picture drawn by Tex Avery? Does Nancy know?
ReplyDeleteThat drawing is a truly monumental piece of work.
ReplyDeleteNice, thanks Eddie.

Hi Uncle Eddie,
ReplyDeleteI "third" the request for more sketchbook drawings of your kids. I really enjoyed those sketches of your daughter. No, I don't think you are being boring at all by showing sketches of your kids - it's a sign of a proud parent.
Speaking of sketches of your kids -all due respect to John's talent, I'm not sure about that sketch of you and your son...yes some of the detail work is good, but...
Wow, that's amazing that you have a sketch from Tex Avery - I'm jealous. I'm a huge fan of Tex Avery's cartoons.
Eddie...
ReplyDeleteyou've known me for 25 years and still can't spell my name?
And I thought we were friends.
Shame.
I'll just go cut my eye out now.
John
John: Spelled wrong? I just reread the post and it's spelled right. Good Lord! Poor John forgot how to spell his name! The TV execs must have poisoned his pizza! The B---ards! THEY'LL PAY FOR THIS!!!!!
ReplyDeleteBTW John, the last few posts on your site have been awesome! Don't be depressed about getting the name wrong. Anybody can write a name but it's given to few to write industry-shaking blogs!
-Eddie
I'm pretty sure it's "Kricfalusi."
ReplyDeleteJohn is beside himself- I'm busily trying to keep him from committing suicide as I'm typing this. :)
Thank you, Katy. I was going to say something to try to avert this tragedy, but I didn't want to totally humiliate Eddy.
ReplyDeleteSee ya
Steev
