Question for you Los on this one. What put kiteboarding ants into your mind? Considering the habitual light winds in my area, SE Florida, I can relate to the microwind climate that would appeal to ants!

Do you think there will be other creatures crossing over to kiteboarding in Tweak's future?

Rick, this comes from a cartoon in the late 70's in surfer mag. (or maybe the early 80's in surfing mag) I can't recall.
Not too many people remember "Maynard & the Rat", long before
Wilbur Kookmyer. I must have read it 50 times. An all time classic,
i wish i still had the old issues.

I actually have an entire book of creatures, no kiteboarding but a whole lot of surfing, snowboarding & skateboarding.

Interesting stuff Los. I was anti-wind sports (windsurfing and surfing) in the days when Maynard & the Rat were on. All that blow stuff messed up viz. for diving! Today however , "jeez all this calm air, clear water ... COULD WE GET SOME GOOD WIND PLEASE!" Times do change.

Los, could you show some of your other characters from your wind blown/surfing menagerie?

Lindy, what other creations have you been working on? Also what specific events prompted you to craft "The Kiteboarder's Wife" comic series? My girlfriend can probably compare notes!

Thanks for the input folks! Are there other kiteboarding cartoonists out there that might join in the discussion?

Tweak- good stuff. I dig your charachters, style and comic layout.
I don't know anything about you other than you are a comic artist. Where are you from, how old are you and how did you get into comic art?
Can you post a few pieces up on our website under "art in kiteboarding?"
http://sharkless.com/gallery/Artkiteboarding Feel free to put a link to your site under it as well.

Rick-
Was that your art that's posted in our art in kiteboarding file?
I got into the comic because i was always getting these funny ideas of ways to make fun of my husband. The humor in a relationship where one person is obsessed with one sport is endless! Broneah did an interview on me where I answered all those questions and more. See: http://www.broneah.com/news/71.html
I'm learning litewave and 3d max to do some animation at this time. I've got some concepts for a new comic next year as well. I'm also working on putting together a film on the great lakes for next summer. I'm really picky about my artwork, so I won't show you guys anything that i'm not 100% or at least 99.9% happy with. I just did a large ink and colored pencil kiteboarding drawing that I'm still touching up. I'll get it up when it's finished.

Hope you all have a great holiday season!

Lindy
