Inspiration

There comes a time in the career of every person where they hit a low spot. A dry area of practice, if you will. I have recently struck mine and am just pulling out of it. It may seem to those who have visited before that nothing has changed, and for the most part, that would be true. Perhaps a few more pictures, more posts... nothing serious. Inspiration has struck! Only recently is that so and from now on you can expect that there will be more entertainment. I've started on a rather large project that I plan to give you guys a small preview to soon, I just have to figure out a few more of the technicalities. Look forward to it. This is inspiration like the sizzling of bacon, by which only true inspiration is comparable.

Post This Drawing, I Must.

What can one say about Yoda? He was a great mentor and a warrior. He fought bravely in the clone wars, trained many padawans (some of which turned to the dark side, but let's not focus on that part), and most perhaps most importantly, offered great wisdom that comes from nine-hundred-ish years of being whatever he is. That's a lot to get done for some guy who was a puppet turned into a computer-generated-image. May he rest in peace and may the force be with you always.

And a War Turtle

It is my deepest, most heart-felt belief that someday the science to give us gigantic animals will someday be made available to us. Personally, I hold on to the hope that one day I will have enough funds to purchase one of these magnificent creatures, particularly one of the reptilian brand with a large shell. Sure it would move slowly, but on the other hand, it's a giant turtle. Now the only problem will be the salmonella. Oh well.

All right, a new drawing is in the "Drawings to get it simply" tab. Please enjoy!

I am currently working a new picture to put on the blog. Be on the lookout! I will be announcing when it is on soon!

I have been plagued with technical difficulties for a long while, and thusly haven't been able to get comics online... I have a new one ready in the Penguin Joe section.

I made this with construction paper, a glue stick, and an "X-acto Knife". Special thanks to Edie Boren for the fabulous new printer/scanner that makes this possible.

You may have noticed that as of late I haven't  been posting any pictures or cartoons on this blog. The answer is simple, and I feel that I haven't been too specific on why I don't post anymore, so now I will enlighten thee: My printer/scanner isn't working. I don't get paid for this, do I? It's not my fault if I can't replace it or fix it. I am drawing, though, and soon enough I will get access to a new scanner so I can put them on here. I'm assuming that I will have access soon enough -- I'm not exactly sure. I think that I may find another way to get them on... either way, it requires patience on your part, and for that my apologies cannot be extended in words. Thank you.


I am Glen Henry, for those who couldn't assume that, and I approve this message.

(Is that what you want? My approval? I don't think it matters that much...)

I have always been told that in writing you have a target audience. It is needless to say for cartooning that there is no particular target audience. We target everybody!

I have only just realize how creepy that sounds. It makes cartoonists sound like assassins or something. Some writers target children. Others target adolescents. Some target adults and senior citizens. But not cartoonists... CARTOONISTS TARGET EVERYBODY!

See? Just imagine that last part with a deep, gravely voice. Notice, I said deep and gravELy, not deep and gravy.... Hold on, I have to run with that.

The words that profusely leaked out of the horrid king's mouth were deep and had gravy-like properties. They were thick and creamy and went great with potatoes.

That could work in a novel, don't you think? I'm not going to write a book with that in it. I don't want to look stupid...er than usual. You can't use it either. That's my line. Okay, you can use it as long as you give me the rights to it.

This has been a dollop of wisdom that has had gravy-like properties.
