Hey you people,

I've just created a new blog space on Open Salon, part of the cool Salon.com website. Salon has great articles and reporting, and was founded by one of my all time favorite columnists/ intellectuals, Camille Paglia! I wanted to create this space to also display my art, and in hopes that visitors who check out my page there will click the link for RobsWorks and view the extensive online gallery here. Here is a link to my new blog space there, check it OUT!

Doodle Art, Part I

I was speaking with my friend Jamia the other day when she mentioned to me that she thought
my doodles and cartoons are my best work, and that I should feature them prominently
on work that I display online; sort of putting my 'best foot forward'. I appreciated her advice and so the post is the first of many more displaying this type of work. These 'doodles' were created while I was procrastinating at work or day-dreaming during a lecture at school (notice the scraps of paper they're drawn on). I hope you enjoy them; feel free to comment or submit your own doodles to me for display on this site.
