Today this blog is exactly two years old, and to mark the occasion, I popped open a whole bottle of champaign all for myself. So, here's to me! (gank...gank...gank...gank...)
This oddball illustration, created in 1955 for an LP of Disney songs by the Lawrence Welk Orchestra, bubbles over with cut-out paper heads glued to a painted background board (Yup, that's Davy Crockett there, but did you recognize Captain Nemo?!) I love the way this artwork tickles my nose.
"ah-one and ah-two..."
Congrats Kevin! I always look forward to your fantastic posts.
ReplyDeleteHappy Anniversary Kevin. Thanks for all the great posts and insite to Disney Magic. Appreciated as always, Richard.
ReplyDeleteStrangely, I did recognize Nemo - in fact, it was the first thing I noticed when I saw the picture. Maybe I have instant Nemo recognition from the Disneyland Records read-along 45.
ReplyDeleteThe Welk-Disney synergy amuses me. Not long ago, I caught one of his old specials that was nothing but Disney music and song-and-dance numbers. It was captivating and terrifying.
Congrats on the anniversary, and as Lawrence would say, "thank yeh boys".
Kevin- congrats on the anniversary. Keep up the great work (both on this blog and on your artwork!)
ReplyDeleteHappy second anniversary to you, Kevin!!!
ReplyDeleteHappy two year!

ReplyDeleteKeep up the great work Kevin!
Time sure flies when you're having fun, I know I have a great time reading your posts and look forward to many more.
ReplyDeleteHappy Anniversary Kevin. If I were there we'd pop open another bottle of bubbles and listen to some Lawrence Welk to celebrate.
