I never miss a chance to retell this amazing Moebius tidbit adventure!!! ••• Repost @off_da_wall_comics: Just watched the recent @cartoonist.kayfabe/#CartoonistKayfabe vid wherein they were rapping on their 1st #Moebius comic joints and wanted to share my little literal elbow brush with the legend… ••• As remembered by Jeaux Janovsky/@jeauxj: “One of my prized possessions is another #Cartoonist’s #BusinessCard. A few years ago, I was on the #Disney lot for a free preview of #Tangled (this was about 2010 when Moebius was a guest artist at the #CTNAnimationExpo that year.) Who comes sitting RIGHT next to me? #JeanGiraud aka Moebius. I was literally rubbing elbows with a #SciFi #Comic #Legend! To tell you the truth, I hardly paid attention to the film, I kept sneaking side glances at Moebius enjoying the film and giggling to myself like a little schoolgirl. When the film ended I introduced myself and asked him to sign the only piece of paper I had on me. Another artist’s business card. So he drew on it for me, and autographed it. He complimented the brush pen I had and said, "Goodbye Scott! Good luck!” Lesson learned: always keep your own business cards handy. You never know when you might sit next to a legend some day.“ #RestInPower Moebius! ••• #RIPMoebius #BusinessCardArt #Autograph #HeavyMetalMagazine #Comics #Comix #ComicCollection #CollectingComics #ComicCollecting #ComicCollector #ComicsCommunity #IGComics #IGComicsFam #IGComicsFamily #Cartoons #Animation #ReadMoreComics #KayfabeEffect @jimruggart @ed_piskor (at Culver City, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CebwzrPviGc/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
Hermann Hendrich was born in the vicinity of the storied Kyffhäuser, his parents were Auguste Friederike Hendrich née Ziegler and the baker August Hendrich. From 1870 to 1872 he served his apprenticeship as lithographer; one year shorter than the regular duration due to his evident talent. He then started a job in a Hanoverian lamp factory where he had to draw a catalogue. At that time, he first attended a Wagnerianopera,Tannhäuser, and the wish emerged to be able to draw such musical impressions.
In 1875, Hendrich attended a job at a Berlin art institution where he had to lithograph oil paintings. in 1876, he visited Norway for further art studies. The jury of the “Grosse Berliner Kunstausstellung” (great Berlin art exhibition) disapproved however the exhibition of his paintings. Hendrich then started a job as painter in Amsterdam. In 1882, he married Clara (Kläre) Becker which he met there. On their honeymoon trip they visited Hendrich’s brother in Auburn, New York. Here, he exhibited for the first time his paintings. After some initial sales, the remaining entire amount of pictures was bought by a single art dealer. Using the earned money Hendrich then made a study trip through the USA.
To further deepen his education, in 1885 he went back to Germany. He started lessons by Professor Wenglein in Munich, but then moved to Berlin, and made a study trip to Norway. In 1886, Hendrich entered a studio of the Berlin Academy of Art and received a stipend from the Prussion Ministry of Education and Arts. His paintings were firstly exhibited in Germany.” (Wikipedia)

Can’t sleep so I’m looking through my old drawings. Here’s one I did about 6 years ago when I was 15.. When I used to sell portraits for 50 bucks and worked at Dairy Queen. #clinteastwood #legend #dirtyharry #drawing #portrait #pencil
Vietnam’s art challenge Vietnam Reimagined has just ended, and there are so many amazing pieces of work. The topic is meant to allow Vietnamese artists to showcase their ideas of what Vietnamese culture is, and they delivered. These beautiful works all showcase Vietnamese religious beliefs, myths, legends, histories, and the vibrant diversity of Vietnam.
