Joy

Click above to view larger image. Largest.

Intended the above as a new Christmas Day cartoon in three panels; 1-Neverborn flies through a very large 'O' in the word 'joy', 2-Faith enters as seen above, and 3-Timothy A. Bear tries to enter through a much smaller 'joy' with the word becoming stuck around his neck.

I settled for the above; simpler and especially quicker since I'm engaged in so much painting.

Tony Blair Converts to Catholicism

Tony Blair Converts to Catholicism-AOL News

Congratulations! What to say it wasn't THE Archbishop of Canterbury's pre-Christmas piddling on the Nativity 'myth' (we Catholics embrace our traditions, instead of publicly dismissing them) which pushed him the rest of the way up the aisle?

If C. S. Lewis were alive today he'd be 109 years old and Catholic.

One of a half dozen portraits of Mother Teresa I've painted during the past decade. Not the best background on this particular version, which is why I still have it. Hard to sell something I know could be better. It's come in handy though as reference for a newer version-




First application of oil over an acrylic underpainting. The background is off to a much better start, I think. Should have this completed and posted by Christmas eve.

Merry Christmas, 2007

Baby Jesus in manger Christmas drawing

I'm going to take a hacienda from the cartoon and produce Catholic themed oils instead. You can keep track of the paintings both here and at the original http://www.faithmouse.com/.
If you have a more traditionally oriented Catholic site you should be very pleased with the newer work, especially if you're running the regularly updating image.
I started a Faithmouse archive and forum about a month ago, which I'll return to now and then for the purpose of posting all past cartoonery. Not absolutely sure how many past toons I've drawn but I suspect it's over one thousand. It'll take some time.
Anyway, I've decided the above cartoon makes for a very nice segway on turning the site over to more spiritual, realistic work. Many visitors don't realize that I have a background as a displayed and published oil painter previous to creating Faithmouse.
Anyway, Merry Christmas! Should have a new Mother Teresa painting posted in a day or three. If you have any suggestions for Catholic-themed oils, I'll be happy to consider them.

Neverborn Promotes Mike Huckabee, January 2007

Mike Huckabee for President, promoted by Neverborn

A Mike Huckabee cartoon I drew for the mikehuckabeepresident2008 blogspot blog back in January as part of my effort to create promotional cartoons for every member of the Pro-Life Blogs blogroll and also to promote the 2nd annual Blogs4Life conference at the Family Research Council in Washington, D.C. (I signed cartoons at the 1st while Chris handed out promos for fellow bloggers who had sponsored our trip-we both handed out promos on the National Mall later during the soggy March For Life).

Faithmouse and Neverborn; a wet day in D.C.

Pretty cool to see this Neverborn cartoon suddenly surface today on page one of Google image search under the querie 'Mike Huckabee cartoon.'

Faithmouse hasn't abandoned her support of Alan Keyes, but it would negligent not to note the sudden ascendancy of the Governor of Arkansas with a new cartoon, in progress.

Thanks kindly from an original Brooklynite to a self-described 'queer vegan treehugging idealist living, working and learning in Brooklyn' for the post of the Otters Holding Hands For Christ cartoon (inspired by the endearing YouTube video) and accompanying plug+link on her Pink Rabbit Says Peace Now!

Kitty Lucia

Santa Lucia day; cats and saffron buns

Happy belated Santa Lucia Day!

Saint Lucy-Catholic Online

Holiday: Lucia Day, December 13-SwedishKitchen

Sorry I'm late-a stalled cartoon was blocking the road.

This was supposed to be about those glow-in-the-dark cats from South Korea, which seemed like a pretty nifty idea two days ago. The candles on top of Augustine's head were meant to look like tall strands of DNA, only glowing. You'll just have to imagine how awesome a Glowing Cloned Cat With DNA Head-Wreath/Santa Lucia Day cartoon might have been because I sure couldn't draw it.

My wife and I like to serenade our skittery white seal point Lucia with the following sweet lyric, which amuses us endlessly:

Kitty cat on the bed
Purring besides our head
Kitty Lucia, Kitty Lucia!

-sung to the tune of the original Italian folksong.

Hillary's Dirt Becomes The Story

You don't have to listen too closely to hear that steady chop chop chop coming from the heart of liberal woodland; it's the sound of the MSM deciding en mass to fell a squat, pant suited tree.

How did this sorry spectacle transpire? Let us review-

Leathered by years of monkey cartoons and comedy central skits, Mr. Bush continues to plow ahead with his agenda, media and public opinion be darned. Defying Time magazine predictions of non-influence, the President benefits from just shy of double the current approval rating of the dead-on-arrival Dem controlled Congress. He's getting everything he wants, nearly. The self-neutered MSM, taken out of the influence game as a result of their own snarky arrogance can only stand by and wait for the coming Democratic liberation, where all former glory is certain to be reconfirmed upon them with regal aplomb…by Barack Obama.

Now, back to that chop chop chop.

Three weeks before the Iowa caucuses is a bad time to launch a smear campaign which infers the candidate is queen and media no more than droning vassals expected to knock Lancelot from his horse. Established news outlets, so long the enablers of Clinton and Co.'s underhanded game plan seem to have coalesced around the opinion that job #1 is to survive the current topsy-turvy circus of old media versus new. Perhaps, the press has decided, it isn't worth indenturing oneself to a second, nastier Bubba presidency and all of the career deciding Clintonian manipulations and threats which promise to go along with it.

No surprise then that suddenly Hillary can't stoke up the dirt onto her opponents without the dirt itself becoming the story. This was demonstrated yesterday when we learned that the campaign in New Hampshire had shaken its head in shame at the Senator’s past drug use, even though Mr. Obama fully admits to inhaling. Only a few days previous, Andrew Young's recent reference to Obama's reputed womanizing was reported to have came across as a humorless Bill Clinton joke, a feat which previously wasn't thought possible. Seeing Hillary's numbers plummet as a direct result of actual reportage must create a Cialis glow in shrinking newsrooms throughout the land, even though the MSM is merely passing along unwhored the same stuff the conservative blogosphere has been putting out there since Gosh knows when, ...since pre-FreeRepublic I suppose, if it's possible to peer that far back in the mist.

So, what does this have to do with Christ (I hear you wonder, wonder..)? With Bill Clinton's wife out of the race early, a social issues conservative such as Mike Huckabee has a real chance of beating a first term Senator from Illinois with no foreign policy experience in a time of war. Six months ago digital theophobes openly celebrated Mr. Guiliani’s seeming coup and the banishment of the Religious Right from the GOP. We're far from the Promised Land, but as of this writing there's a real possibility of a Bush 3.





Whether or not a President Huckabee or Romney would unwaveringly support social conservative benchmarks remains to be seen, although I suspect the answer would be no based upon their past non-performance as fiscal conservatives (which is why I find it difficult to get enthusiastic about either candidate). We may however be able to trust these two with the courts. If conservatives can retain the privilege of appointing judges for a successive pseudo-conservative administration there's a chance Christians may retain the liberty to occasionally reveal themselves as hypocrites in schools and city council chambers across the land, which would be a good thing. Making public fools of themselves is the God-granted right of every person of faith, a ruler against which all others liberties are measured.

Security Guard Prayed For Divine Guidance Before Shooting Gunman - ABCNews

A Neverborn cartoon honoring New Life Church parishoner and security guard Jeanne Assam, who saved countless lives as a result of the brave and unfaltering decisions she made this past Sunday in Colorado.

This story also has three Minnesota principles comprising of two victims and one hero. Twenty-six year old Tiffany Johnson of Chisholm, Minnesota was shot and killed at the Youth With a Mission center in Arvada; Burnsville resident Charles Blanch suffered multiple shots to his leg at the same location. Jeanne Assam is a former Minneapolis policewoman who was fired for what the MPD refers to as a 'truthfullness' issue, having to do with words she may or may not have said on a city bus. Think about that next time you're riding Metro.

The Golden Ferret

The golden compass is a big bomb

The Golden Compass meets The ACLU Ferret.

The box office failure of The Golden Compass is a blow to those sympathetic to the establishment of an anti_Catholic film franchise on the scale of The Lord Of The Rings and Narnia. My guess is that we won't be seeing any poseable collectable figurines representing characters in The Subtle Knife (or their demonic familiars) anytime soon.

The inclusion of Harry Reid is due to his recent condemnation of conservative Christians at BYU, Steve Martin for his mocking of Mel Gibon's Passion Of The Christ (looking forward to Steve's upcoming New Yorker Magazine article flaying Compass for its unabashed pro-atheist book promoting hucksterism), Linda Ronstadt who doesn't like singing for Christians)-Et al.

Al Franken's Party Trick

Mitt Romney is a Mormon

Al Ferret (here in the role of Al Franken) shows Faith a party trick.

Comedian Says Minnesota Run Is a Serious One - NY Times

Al Franken (creator of the 'Supply Side Jesus' anti-conservative parody, which was much less respectful to the Christian faith than the fake scenario he was mocking) stands here in the role of Al Ferret, displaying one of the recent party tricks he likes to perform at campaign meet-and-greets-drawing from memory every position he's held on the Iraq troop surge.

'Comedian' references to Franken in the MSM Media seem to have taken the place of much more respectful 'author' 'writer' 'talk-show host' and 'former talk show host' descriptions, revealing the barely concealed disdain of most liberal journalists towards a media personality who's made a lot more money hating the right than they themselves have managed up to this point.

Mitt Should Can "The Speech" - David Limbaugh

My goodness, Governor Mitt Romney sir-stop sticking your finger in it. If Orrin Hatch was a serious contender for the GOP presidential nomination his honorable Mormon faith would be a non-issue... because his record as a conservative isn't.



Now the news is that Mitt will give some sort of nonsense JFK 'separation' speech for the benefit of the media and Democrats, when he really needs to convince skeptical evangelicals within his own party that his faith, no matter how 'odd' it may seem, truly forms the bedrock of his conservatism. Evangelicals within the GOP may embrace Mitt if he reveals himself as being a man of deep conviction, but it seems he won't which should ensure dismissal from his peers.

Contrary to perception, Mr. Romney hasn't been shy to reference his faith as a means of bolstering his suspect conservative creds, but now he needs to explain why-something which even fellow Mormon Orrin Hatch has encouraged the candidate to do this coming Thursday.

Does Mr. Romney have the correct conviction of his heart to appeal to all of Christiandom; that is, faith in Christ above tenets, and loyalty to tenets because they flow from a heartfelt interpretation of the will of Christ? We may never know.

Sen. Clinton at Saddleback Church - A big mistake? OneNewsNow

Borrowing Minnesota Loon and Neverborn for a cartoon regarding a San Francisco Chronicle story about Hillary Clinton's appearance at Saddleback church in California (flock of pop-pastor Rick Warren, author of The Purpose Driven Life and coddler of Syrian terrorist President Assad, killer of our troops in Iraq) a story which also couldn't resist a reference to some Christians as (of course) hateful. The hateful quote was correctly attributed, but no such luck for the Son of God and author of one of the world's best know unattributed parables. Perhaps the SF writer was just being coy or not trying to offend a diverse readership. More than likely she wasn't familiar with the source.
