It's fun to see your

The quest continues on my goal to be a cartoonist for The New
Yorker. Over a year now solidly devoted to this life
goal pursuit. In Mr. Mankoff's words, here's why:
"The New Yorker is to cartooning what God is to religion. It
didn't completely invent it, but it's the Holy Grail."
-Robert Mankoff, longtime cartooning editor and cartoonist at The
New Yorker magazine

Original illustration design by John Francis: Urban submarine
periscope breaking through concrete--
which had to get the USS Larimer (art on Larimer Square) moniker,
because passers by just didn't get it, even though they thought it
was "really cool."
God bless my mom, The
original person who's respect and knowledge of all things Native
American, Colorado, positive "you-can do-it" attitude & wickedly
humorous spirit, inspired mine. She's always been my best friend and
now she gets the best angelic seat in the house. Love ya, mom!
Give 'em hell in heaven.
