Jim,
I've been a fan for years. I'm looking forward to learning how that keen eye focuses on an idea. Look forward to watching some of your sketches come to life. Sometimes your drawings in the Enquirer make me laugh, sometimes they make me mad but, they always make me think.
Keeo up the Great Work.
Many years ago (OK, I graduated from high school in 1979) you visited the late, great Ben Price's art class at Seton. I remember being impressed by the fact you had a "real" job making art. And now I look forward to reading Zits everyday because I am absolutely convinced you are writing about my relationship with my 17 year old son (who is also an aspiring artist struggling to keep his sketch book filled with new ideas.) Love your work. J
