About Me
- Thomas Haller Buchanan
- My name is Thom Buchanan. I'm an artist and photographer. People are my favorite subjects to portray in art and photos. My wife (and studio partner) has called that my 'people skills', as I've been passionately creating portrait studies for many years. I refer to myself as a pictorialist, a combination of image-making and journalist. Images are my life.
My Blogging Motto
Scan Unto Others
As You Would Have Them
Scan Unto You.

Hun's opinion:
Reminds me more of the Katzenjammer Kids...
(no flying brickbats on this - great - cartoon)
Hun, you do know that I wasn't referring to Herriman's style, but to the sign in the upper right hand corner?
Hun says (with hanging ears):
You caught me on that one...
But then you got to admit -PLEASE- that it is well hidden among all the other signs
I love this!
It's interesting that he's pretty careful with the cast shadows, but that the implied light source changes dramatically throughout the picture!
Glen
Hun, you look so cute with hanging ears. And yes, the sign WAS well hidden, hence my hint in the title of the post.
Glen, you're so right. It looks like Gruelle chose his cast shadows to help anchor each clump to its best advantage, and yet doing that doesn't detract from the whole effect.
