Portland, Maine University of New England Art Gallery "The Art of the Comic"



Above: a cartoon of mine that is NOT in the show. I just thought it was an appropriate cartoon to show for this occasion. It's actually the sixth cartoon I drew many years ago when I quit my "real job" and went freelance. For a guys in the desert kinda cartoon, it's not bad.




I'm part of a new gallery show opening this week.

"The Art of the Comic" is a gallery show at the Portland, Maine University of New England Art Gallery. The reception, which is free and open to the public, is from 5 to 7pm Thursday, July 11th. The show runs from July 10th to October 6, 2019 and features works from 28 local "comic and sequential artists, illustrators, and professional doodlers."

Mike, This is not the University of Maine Portland it’s the University of New England.
You might want to correct this so you don’t have disappointed people showing up at the USM Gallery in the student center.

Oh, gee whiz. Thank you, Mr. Unknown, for your diligence here. I appreciate. I've changed it so people will show up at the right place. Sorry about this!
