The secret is, of course, that there is no secret. At least to me. You see, the way I look at it is that a person’s life is a theme (or theme park). And anyone/everyone builds their own life and world-view around that theme.
For me, it was all these unanswered questions about how the world actually works and why. Now, those questions were recently answered as life-long research culminated with a book that has two titles: “Go Thunk Yourself – Revisited” and “Freedom Is – period.”
You can see all the work I’ve put into this by the number of sites linked on this page. My half-century on this planet has used most of that in just researching the human condition, since too many situations I’ve been involved in simply didn’t make sense – and no single author or book could explain everything. I found I could write and so I did. I found out how easy publishing was and so published my own books and brought a few of the real self-help classics back in modern, readable versions. That’s all over on my Lulu storefront.
Cartoons are something I’ve always been interested in, since they are more effective in communicating than many other art forms. If you chase this back through Disney and Warner Bros classics, you’ll see why they are actually classics. They were written, drawn, and directed to appeal to a wide variety of people on multiple levels, multiple age-brackets. Of course, those are animated versions.
When you go back to static, printed cartoons, you’ll see the same approach. Lots of meanings on different levels. All types of ways to appeal to people with the same simple images.
And I’ve been experimenting around with these for my whole life. And you’d see all sorts of styles and uses I put them to. Even did some preliminary work on animation – which I intend to return to…
It’s just that cartoons really communicate better than any other medium I’ve found. And when you have something to say, it’s best you do it in the most effective medium you can find.
Please enjoy.
