Ooh, there’s so much great stuff here! I’d love to have that Fox and Crow and Woody tippin’ the jug on a t-shirt.

Will there be an exhibit catalog we can purchase?

You can view many of the pieces featured in the show online here:

thanks for the kind words. it was a great thing to be a part of!

I saw the top middle Betty Boop in my DA account, I saw when he first posted it!

The pieces by Matt Cavanaugh, Bob McKnight, and Hammerson really grab me. Popeye contrasted with the tattoo artist, it’s brilliant.

This is some of the most inspired and creative work I’ve ever seen done with many of these classic characters. I would love to buy a print of the pieces by Hammerson, Cavanaugh and McKnight especially. If this exhibit is any indication of the talents they posess these artists are sure to have sucessful careers ahead of them. Thanks for sharing.

The Bob McKnight piece looks like something I want to see on a home video cover!

So cool! Love the Oswald on runaway train painting.

That is one FANTASTIC take on the Fox and Crow there - possibly the newest thing ever made with these guys. Wonderfully faithful to John Hubley’s rendition…although now I’m game to see how they’d look in Frank Tashlin and Bob Wickersham’s style. Top marks to McKnight there :D

So where is the line drawn between some ironic and incongruous tweaks on cartoon characters being inspired and clever (here) and being bland and cliched (the Fallen Princesses and others)?

@doug holverson: Style and substance. As you can see in Matt Cavanaugh’s piece, there’s plenty of style and plenty of substance, and that’s what separates art from the realms of blandness and cliché.
