@ Jeremy...I like Robert Crumb's artwork a lot but haven't read much of his work. I'm not a big fan of that style of writing, my real passion is surreal comedy like Sam Gross and B. Kliban. In terms of the "look" of my cartoons, I'd say I was influenced by Kliban when I first began 25 years ago, but have evolved my own style now, which is very different. I would not say I "copied" Crumb's look.
I saw Robert Crumb's new book out. Great work, let me tell you. I love it.
ReplyDeleteIs he someone you look up to? I just now realized how much you copy Crumb's look and his artistic style. I wonder if it is intentional.
What say you?
Recession humor?
