July 2nd, 2015 – My Color Version of the Creature in the Woods!
by Rob Smith, Jr. on Jul.02, 2015, under Cartooning, Swampy's Florida
Here’s the color version of the drawing I posted last night!
Trilby is strolling through the woods to a picnic and is bothered by an intruding alien & his transportation device. The lone extraterrestrial inquires as to the nearest burger joint. Trilby points the way to the The Burger Inn, though, in truth, he’s not quite sure where he is at the moment.
July 1st, 2015 – My Inking of a Creature in the Woods.
by Rob Smith, Jr. on Jul.01, 2015, under Cartooning
I’m grounded for a bit and getting as much artwork out as I can. Amongst the cartooning done tonight included the next few days of my daily Swampy’s Florida daily celebration cartoons. This one was fun! The fun of aliens is that you can make it up as you go along! grin emoticon
I’ll leave a shroud of mystery as to what this creature might be celebrating Thursday. Tomorrow you can see the color version over at Swampy’s Florida or I’ll later share it here.
I’ve been having fun creating a continuous story linking the celebratory daily cartoons into a story. The fun is trying to figure out how to link each day together!
June 26th, 2015 – Drawing a hero!
by Rob Smith, Jr. on Jun.26, 2015, under Caricatures, Cartooning
Drew a wonderful group of older folks today. Including Joan Kelly who, along with her dancing partner, were entertainers for the USO and performed for troops waiting to go overseas during WWII. She tap danced and sung at bases in New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania. Hard to imagine all of the joy she brought to our brave soldiers. She’s one of my heroes!

Trilby and a bunny! You can see the color version over at Swampy’s Florida later this morning.
My rugged schedule of the past week and a half has finally caught up with me. Was in a meeting Monday night where I just kept feeling sicker and sicker and couldn’t slip out. Made my way home and crashed. This proves that I’m not in perpetual motion, despite what people say.

February 14th, 2015 – Valentine’s Day Handrawn cards at Silver Springs State PArk
by Rob Smith, Jr. on Feb.14, 2015, under Cartooning, Florida Attractions
I spent the day at Silver Springs State Park hand drawing and painting Valentine’s cards for a special price. While there I also promoted our Silver Springs Festival and Marion County Museum of History and Archaeology. I, as usual, fumbled trying to sell cards and went about cheerleading what I was promoting. Finally, folks got wise they were missing out on a great deal involving Valentine’s Day cards and I was put to the test to knock out many as the day closed. Notice it is nearly dark in one photo.
February 5th, 2015 – Another of my Romer, the Recycling Squirrel #cartoons !
by Rob Smith, Jr. on Feb.05, 2015, under Cartooning
Here’s another of the Romer, the Recycling Squirrel series from the City of Orlando’s City Hallways. This one includes folks here on Facebook. Like Robert Spindler, Pamela Swinehart Duffy and Ed Richter. Don’t know if Barbara is here on Facebook or not. This was the graphics section of the City of Orlando in the latter days I was there.
This is #2 of 3 of day #4 of #5 of a Facebook Art Challenge.
February 5th, 2015 – More of my Romer, the Recycling Squirrel #cartoon!
by Rob Smith, Jr. on Feb.05, 2015, under Cartooning
More Romer, the Recycling Squirrel I scrawled out for our City Hallways more than 20 years ago while I was with the City of Orlando. This one is a favorite of mine. John Everhart was a co-worker who had one heck of a sense of humor. That last panel is an exact pose you might find him in if you came through the engineering department.
The cartoon involved a bit of editorial that employees were told one day that we no longer had a place to park and had to park blocks away and walk to City Hall. I didn’t mind the walk. It’s that the City was slowly giving away all the land around the building to business investors. I remember so well after the old City Hall was visually imploded at the beginning of the film Lethal Weapon 3, Lew Oliver arranged the new City Hall to have property around the building that might be built and then leased to help City taxpayers. Within ten years Lew was gone and the opposite happened.
This is Day 4 of a 5 day challenge that I got flipped in my head. That and I’ve been busy. This is #1 0f 3 for the day. Heck, I almost need a legal description to work this thing out!
I’m apparently supposed to ask another artist to post 3 bits of artwork for 5 days and also ask another artist to post work. OK, AE Sabo – You’ll likely follow the rules better than I. 😀
January 29th, 2014 – More of my City Hall artwork: A Puppet Fairy Tale
by Rob Smith, Jr. on Jan.29, 2015, under Cartooning
Here’s something else I did while at the City of Orlando, though i did a bunch of this with my own time. It was for the puppet theater the City used to have at the City Community Centers.
Each of the characters shown was also a puppet. I remember going out to get photos for this.
This for Facebook Art Challenge #3 of 3. Pam Treadwell
