Fourth event (last one by now :-). Ticonderoga Cartoon Museum is the cutest museum I know. Sometimes it reminds me of my studio:-) This beautiful and warm museum is at Ticonderoga, NY, and his director is the excellent and veteran cartoonist Stan Burdick. Eight of my original comic strips already own to this institution. As soon as I can, I'll put more photos at my blog because although three museums more have my artwork, I totalle fell in love with this one. Stan and Cathie Burdick are really a charming couple. Upper image: Two of my original comic strips. Bottom image: Just a bit of Ticonderoga Cartoon Museum.

La exclamacion...Que perdón, ni cojones...! Son así. Maravillosas Viñetas, llens de ironía y humor negro. La tele, las sardinas.Las viñetas o, Tebeos es el Arte de los niños y mayores ¿Que hubiese dicho Picasso de todo ésto tuyo? El conjunto de abajo es muy bueno.Por siempre . José

Artist Reply: Ahora que no nos oye nadie, Pepillo, tengo que decirte que estás hecho un ligón :-))) ¿Sabes? Hay una frase atribuida a Picasso según la cual a él le hubiera gustado ser dibujante de comics. Dicho con todo respeto, creo que hubiera sido malo en ese campo y no porque no supiera dibujar, claro está, sino porque el dibujo de humor y el humor en sí comportan otros parámetros que no he visto en ninguna de sus obras y sin embargo sí aparecen en otros artistas clásicos y modernos: tú mismo, por ejemplo. En algunos de tus cuadros se percibe el humor vía gracia andaluza, en otros la mordacidad o la sátira hacen acto de presencia. Tú sabes de qué hablo. Guardo alguna de esas botellas de buen vino que te ha regalado tu hermano por si acaso se te presenta en casa alguna de las damas a las que estás tirando los tejos :-)))) Un fuerte abrazo.

What a great atmosphere for an exhibit! Very cosy and artistic. Haha I bet it's allowed to smoke there! I love the remote cartoon!

Artist Reply: Hi, Anneke. I know that a Japanese from II World War is hidden there. No one can find him :-)))

Excellent work and I agree with Sharon regarding your work in the museum. Very well deserved for such a great artist as you are Armando.

Artist Reply: Hi, Teresa. Thank you for your comment and visit. Just a question: Are you spamming in the last 5-6 months? I had to establish the security level as "high" in my mailbox because I got over 1.000 spam mails daily during months. Luckily looks like there's a truce now. I tell it to you because from time to time I got invitations from you (?) through art galleries and I don't know if you are the real sender or it's spam. Buona sera!

Artist Reply: SORRY! The suitable word is SPAMMED instead of SPAMMING.

Sharon Gonzalez 26 Mar 2009

FANTASTIC, ARMANDO. BRAVO! AND VERY DESERVING. THESE MUSEUMS ARE LUCKY TO HAVE YOUR WORK HANGING WITH THEIR COLLECTION. TRULY MEAN THAT. XOX

Artist Reply: Thank you very much, Sharon. XOX back.
