Cartoon Characters drawn by Gloria Poole


These four cartoons are some I drew years ago, put up for safe keeping then  I found them again when I was photographing my ethnic series of paintings and sketches. I lived in Atlanta, Ga metro  &  city  intermittently for total of 11 yrs. I worked as RN there [yr 1995] but I drew and sketched then as I do now but not as often. I was also born in the state of Georgia, and I am white, single, Christian, woman.

 I created this in an effort to teach myself cartooning. They are acrylics on paper. I didn't give them a name at the time. I thought others might get a laugh from them. It's a way of doing something for small children to see online [but also for anyone.].

Four cartoons drawn by gloriapoole previously of Atlanta, GA

I am adding three of the cartoons I drew in red inks or pencil and one that I drew then painted. I have several more to add over time. I was recently rephotographing much of the art I have created since 1992, beginning in Atlanta, GA, continuing to all places I have lived and now continuing in Missouri where I now live. I am white, single [divorced twice]  Christian, woman, who was born in the state of Georgia. Scroll back through archives to see some of the cartoons I created in Missouri. 
Thanks.

Elephant headstand & tree frog cartoons by Gloria

Tree frog cartoon by Gloria Poole /gloriapoole /Gloria; yr 2013 ; acrylics

Here are two more cartoons to add to the Lady Bug Picnic story. The elephant is trying to get the attention of the lizard at the picnic and the fuschia rabbit . And the tree frog is just plain lost,  up a tree literally.  The tree started as a small tropical plant on compost.  So the tiny man with binoculars is looking for him, to guide him to the lady bug picnic. But alas! it's a good thing the tree frog can't find his way to the picnic because tree frogs would make the lady bugs the lunch. And the pink star [named after pink star diamond in the news that was gorgeous], fell out of the sky just in time to attend the Lady Bug Picnic. To see Lady bug picnic first sketch scroll through archives on this blog.
These sketches are on my movable drawing board, and obviously the tree frog sketch is intended to be surreal.  Both sketches are acrylic paints after drawing them first with pencil. Copyright.
