Seasons greetings! 

Some of you may recognize Todd Schorr’s “Clsash Of The Holidays”, one of my personal favorites by this artist. I highly recommend visiting his website: www.toddschorr.com and browse his wickedly twisted sense of humor and art. You’ll find this excerpt from his bio there, and if that doesn’t peak your curiosity… well then never mind.

  “Todd Schorr’s artistic journey is one that hardly conforms to the time-honored stereotype of Bohemian artist. It is rather a post-war tale bracketed by an America infatuated with the limitless potential of consumerism. His formative years were spent in a world surrounded by the atomic and space ages, by Saturday morning cartoons and racks of comic books at the local drug store, a land populated by Revell models, Mad Magazine, Testors glue, Mickey Mouse and Rat Fink. Further fueling his developing image bank were the seemingly endless icons from television’s early years: Robbie the Robot, Mighty Joe Young and reel upon reel of animated toons from the likes of Tex Avery, George Pal and Max Fleischer The compulsion to replicate these characters led to a formal art education and exposure to a new set of influences drawn from the world of advertising and commercial art.”
