Max has a collection of lamps… he’s the collector of light, so to speak… I am most certain he paints them as well. That’d make him the…
I find it ironic and wonderfully coincidental (although I don’t believe in such things) that a certain “cottage-y” painter was picked up for drunk driving this week.
Brig: The thing is, did you find out about TK’s drunk-driving charge before or after you drew this strip? Because if it was before, then it’s perhaps rather less coincidental than you suggest 😉
And of course, it’s not the only bit of naughtiness he’s gotten up to over the years…
I don’t think the unmentioned cottage light painter has actually painted anything in years. He’s too busy managing his business of bringing tackiness to trailers everywhere. He’s like that writer, J—s P–t–s-n who makes outlines of his novels and other people write them.
From what I heard from the late Sir Clement Freud on the excellent BBC radio comedy panel game Just A Minute a few years ago, a certain Pablo Picasso used to simply add the letter “P” to works his students had done, thereby increasing the value significantly. I’ve not actually looked for corroboration of this beyond Picasso’s Wikipedia entry (and he’s not replying to my emails ;)), so I can’t state if this is true… but it’d be good enough for Fox News 😉
(Hopefully only another six weeks until Just A Minute is back – yay!)
Spill just brought a whole new meaning to “lockjaw” :). /terriblepuns.
Thomas Kinkade? For serious? I love his paintings. The good thing about artists of all kinds is you can appreciate their work without having to put up with the actual person’s idiosynchrasies(I can’t be spelling that right), although that doesn’t work as well with the internet. Good thing Brig is cool :D!
In fact I did this cartoon a couple weeks ago. So timing… I had nothing to do with.
I am surprised at Mr. Kinkade’s suspected bad behavior… which leads me to suspect that he is NOT a very nice person.
Lock jaw! Ha!
I have not heard of Mr. Picasso’s signing his name to student work. Although, Rodin used his students’ hands and feet in HIS work. He did sign his name to the sculpture.
