That is Priceless by Steve Melcher for June 22, 2018

He’s actually playing tic tac toe.

Maria trying to get her husband’s attention off drawing baby pictures and to come to dinner.

“Let’s go up to my studio and get plastered!”

In those days, it was a popular job doing driver license photos.

You need a 32 A for the left side and a 36 C for the right.

“Hmmm—maybe there’s a better way to keep it on than by tucking it in?”

The cherub closest to the easel looks amazed.

“For heaven’s sake, Jemima, it’s only a tiny mouse”.

OK, almost there, I just need you to loosen that last knot.

Honest mistake!

Hah. The “Incredibles”. :)

Awfully full of herself if that’s what she thought.

Tom’s trophy wife.

You do realize there is a guy over there painting you painting me?

“You should have changed into your work clothes before using oil paint.” …. “These are my work clothes.”

all have info about this artist (the last in Italian; again, Chrome can automatically translate), perhaps in addition to what’s pointed to by the first URL. So far, 2 works by him have been used here (with 1 repeat). 

http://www.gocomics.com/that-is-priceless/2014/09/02?comments=visible 

has the repeat (of the 9/4/12 strip), which sadly, though my (expanded) comment text is there with the line breaks removed, its 18 hyperlinks remain inactive, and its embedded image isn’t shown. ;?@#!#%&!

Again, a larger strip image is shown by clicking the image in Mr. Melcher’s MASTERPIECE #1980 (June 21, 2018) blog entry, accessible by the Check out the blog! box after the last comment.

At age 45, Arcangelo Pisano, called “Il Perverto Pisano”, at last moved on from kiddie porn. Sadly, his career foundered…

stop shaking ,if your cold I’ll put more logs on the fire, can’t paint when you move.

She thinks: “Since when does the Ascension of the Virgin mean full frontal?”

Hmmmm, not interested in naked women but no probs drawing (posing of?) naked kids?

There are so many paintings of other painters painting nudes. I guess even painters like to depict what they know best.

That’s totally what he meant.
