    Little Red Riding Hood had a penchant for wandering off of the beaten path LONG before she got the eponymous riding hood, but her predilections got her into a lot more trouble once puberty hit.

    It started as a photo-realistic painting, but then the artist’s allergies kicked in…BIG SNEEZE…and he said, “I’m not repainting it. Sell it like that.” And people liked it. Go figure.

    has info and links that point to info about this roughly jumbo envelope size painting.

    https://www.deutsche-biographie.de/sfz43159.html 

    all have info, or links that point to more info, about this artist (the last in German, again, Google Chrome can automatically translate if necessary), perhaps in addition to what’s pointed to by the title URL. So far, 3 works by him have been used here. 

    https://www.gocomics.com/that-is-priceless/2019/05/20?comments=visible 

    has the prior (my comment there included the first 3 artist info URLs; the prior strip pointed to there is the first time this was used).

     

    Again, a larger strip image is shown by (⌘- or Ctrl-) clicking the image in Mr. Melcher’s MASTERPIECE #440 (January 3, 2011) blog entry, accessible by the Check out the blog! box after the last comment.
