Coming Soon 👀 At the beginning of April, you’ll be
introduced to a brand-new GoComics! See more information here. Subscribers, check your
email for more details.
Jon: I need to be more creative.
Garfield: Red flag, red flag.
Jon: You know, I used to paint when I was in college.
Garfield: Barns don't count.
Jon: I bet I've still got a masterpiece in me!
Garfield: I think we're out of black velvet.
Actually Will P., painting upside down may work better for those of us who are artistically challenged. I think the book, “Painting on the Right Side of Your Brain” (or something like that) suggested something along that line. Do something so your cognitive left side brain can get out of the way and allow the creative right side get a thought in.
Yes, you have the book’s title right, and I used to own it (not that I had the time to use it, and it got lost when I left a whole box full of paperbacks behind in my move out here).
Well, comixavier, according to one of the Garfield anthologies, Jon gave up his cartoonist career to “play straight man” to Garfield. That’s a job and a half, I’d say.
i’m also curious how so many of you managed to flip your text. Very cool.

All the painting Jon ever did was paint- by-numbers I bet.

When you find the black velvet, I’d like Jesus, John Wayne, Elvis, and JFK playing poker with a dog.

Hey, in the very first Garfield strip (19 June 1978), Jon said –through the fourth wall– he is a cartoonist. Whatever happened to that talent of his?
