August 14th, 2007 – Ken Culotta!

After a very busy day I met with my old friend and collaborator, Ken Culotta. To the right is a sketch I did of him Tuesday night. We tend not to collaborate as much since the Ocala move. We did some political discussing and then started talking about a comic strip project I’ve been working in when time permits. After about an hours talk about the strip Ken came up with a brilliant solution to what may have been a bigger problem with the project than I thought. His idea alters the current structure of the strip but also streamlines and sharpens the focus of the concept. It’s folks as incredibly creative as Ken that can look at anything and recognize and come up with creative solutions to issues the creator may miss while bogged down into the actual physical creative process. Thanks, Ken!
Ken is a creative genius that the Disney Company, whom he works for, has yet to see or use even a sixteenth of what he’s capable of. I’ve known Ken since high school. We created a comic strip in the 1980s and we worked on political cartoons until recently.
