I certainly can't let Halloween go by without posting a couple of paintings by legendary horror artist, BASIL GOGOS. Above is JONATHAN FRID as BARNABAS COLLINS, from TV and film's DARK SHADOWS, painted for the cover of FAMOUS MONSTERS OF FILMLAND #59, 1969. Below is BORIS KARLOFF as the FRANKENSTEIN MONSTER, from THE BRIDE OF FRANKENSTEIN, painted for the cover of the CD, ROB ZOMBIE presents THE WORDS AND MUSIC OF FRANKENSTEIN.
Just did this DON KNOTTS sketch card. I based the art on the DON KNOTTS character design seen in THE NEW SCOOBY-DOO MOVIES. Love the comedy of DON KNOTTS and had the pleasure of meeting him a couple of times. THE ANDY GRIFFITH SHOW is up there on my list of all-time favorite TV shows.
Looking forward to the January 5, 2010 release of this! Paramount Home Entertainment has announced MIGHTY MOUSE: THE NEW ADVENTURES - The Complete Series.

So glad to hear that former KISS drummer, PETER CRISS, is now cancer-free! In 2008, PETER was diagnosed with male breast cancer and underwent successful surgery. PETER is spreading the word that breast cancer does not discriminate...it also affects men. To read more from Rolling Stone, click HERE. Be sure to check out www.petercriss.net!

Love the 1966 MARVEL SUPER-HERO TV cartoons from Grantray-Lawrence! Here's a small selection of promotional material for the cartoon series that featured CAPTAIN AMERICA, THE HULK, IRON MAN, THOR and SUB-MARINER!
I've posted these recently, but here, again, are a few of my sketch cards of the MARVEL TV SUPER-HEROES.
I'm sad to report the passing of legendary composer, VIC MIZZY. MIZZY, who passed away today at 93, wrote some of the most catchy theme songs for television and film, including THE ADDAMS FAMILY, GREEN ACRES, THE GHOST AND MR. CHICKEN, THE RELUCTANT ASTRONAUT and more. I had the pleasure of meeting VIC MIZZY at the old CREATURE FEATURES store in Burbank, CA in the late 1990s.

I've been watching the recently-released TOM AND JERRY - THE CHUCK JONES COLLECTION DVD set...beautiful cartoons! Here's a couple of CHUCK JONES' more definitive characters, WILE E. COYOTE and the ROAD RUNNER. I had the pleasure of meeting CHUCK JONES once...at a lecture he gave at Warner Bros. in the late 1990s. I was working on-staff at Warner Bros. Consumer Products at the time.
