I am 83 years old! I spent a good part of my adult life self employed, earning a living drawing one minute caricatures with cartoon bodies, on a overhead projector, of visitors to tourist areas!
I done most of this so called work in the state of Hawaii! I also drew caricatures in Japan and California!
I also earned a living as a sign painter and a show card writer!
I did free lance gag cartooning in New York but didn't make too much money at it because only a privileged few were allowed into the marketplace of magazine gag cartooning during that decade of the 1950'S
I worked in carnivals and circuses and was able to have an interesting life because I never married and so I never had to settle down with a lot of responsibilities!
I worked when I felt like it and goofed off most of the time!
I have cartoon sites and blogs and stuff that is regarded by people that disagree with me as despicable!... It is they that are despicable in my eyes, for having the audacity to disagree with me!
My main site where you can visit all of the links that go to my despicable stuff is ....
