Comments and likes have been very sparse here thanks to AI and Algorithms burying actual art made by actual artists... If you can see this, send a like or throw a comment down. Let me know if you'd like to see the next sketchbook when this one wraps up. Thanks comrades! 🙏🏼

❤️💩💕 Return of the Crap. (sung to the tune of "Return of the Mack.") *Cartoon executive elevator pitch: Nuggthaniel is a wizard-cursed magical talking turd trapped on his block who hosts a talk show from inside a discarded TV, interviewing anyone or anything while chasing his dream of greatness.

"I'm just a little old cartoonist tryin' to make a buck."- Walter Lantz ••• Me at 50. I turned 50 this past March. I try to draw a self-portrait of myself every year... just to make sure I’m still in there somewhere. So far, so good.

Huge thanks to the fine folks at Animation Magazine for inviting me to the prestigious World Animation Summit 2025! Of course I rolled in with my trusty sketchbook and did my usual “Panel Drawings” thang. Day 1, Panel 1: “A New Era For WARNER BROS Animated Features: One-on-One with Bill Damaschke.”
