Art for a TOM and JERRY activity book cover published by Golden Books. My inking over pencil art by Mark Christansen!
TOM and JERRY cartoon fun! Love the above 1960 comic book cover by Harvey Eisenberg! Terrific layout and beautiful design!...something you don't see very often anymore. Below is a box of TOM and JERRY Crayons from 1966...looks like the Chuck Jones characters. Jones was doing the TOM and JERRY cartoons at the time.
Love these 1960s BOP BAGS...especially the BOZO, BATMAN, YOGI BEAR, BULLWINKLE and FRED FLINTSTONE!
MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE! Here's one of my YOGI BEAR Christmas-themed inkings...done for YOGI BEAR licensing.
SHAZAM!
HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
A big thank you to Dave Levy at BIG KID Collectable Toy Mall and Retro Store in Sherman Oaks, CA for this very cool Moebius WONDER WOMAN plastic model kit! It's a re-issue of the 1960s Aurora kit. I highly recommend this WONDER WOMAN model!

Saw this on Facebook...it was posted by Facebook friend, Charles Brubaker. It's a cool ad for the Chuck Jones TOM & JERRY cartoons, so I thought I'd share it here! MGM placed the ad in the November 29, 1965 issue of BoxOffice magazine. I was just watching the DVD set of the Chuck Jones TOM & JERRY cartoons. Click on the ad for a larger view!

Good to see that Classic Media once again used my FROSTY THE SNOWMAN art on their latest DVD release of the classic 1969 Rankin/Bass Christmas TV special! It would have been nice to use the special's title lettering (shown below, by Paul Coker, Jr.) and the names RANKIN/BASS on the front cover, as they did on their initial FROSTY THE SNOWMAN DVD release a few years ago. NOTE: Scroll down to see my December 2, 2010 posting for the FROSTY THE SNOWMAN original art that I have available!
On December 2, 2008, I added a visitor counter to my blog (I started this blog in mid-October of 2006). According to my counter, I went over 1 MILLION hits today! Thank you to everyone who visits PATRICK OWSLEY CARTOON ART and MORE!
THE GREEN HORNET by the sensational entertainment artist, BOB BENTOVOJA! This classic 1966-1967 TV show produced by WILLIAM DOZIER and Greenway Productions (Batman), starred VAN WILLIAMS as The Green Hornet/Britt Reid and BRUCE LEE as Kato.
