THE END IS NEAR! The Links That Make It All Worth It...

Well, I still haven't said why I did this and I'm still not quite done yet. But I did a Google Blog Search (I LOVE this thing!) and found a lot of links to it. Here's a quick roll-call:

Jon-a-Rose
Qatato
le Wigwam
Botropolis
chriscarter.org
WeHeartIt
Cabri Ole - In Spanish
ChaosX.com - Japaneses... damn it.
Maravillosamente absurdo - In Spanish
Woefully Misinformed
Hungryghoast's Web Presence (It's on there somewhere... it's a kinda-weird thing so I can't post a direct link)
AmpleSanity
Abduzeedo
Bloggy's Blog


But I saved my favorite for last:

Priscilla’s Notebook
The End Is Near

Here's an excert:

Why would someone make a cute cardboard robot and make a sign on the robot that says “The End Is Near”. The robot at first glance is very cute until you see the sign and it makes you think differently about the robot. Who would write and believe what the sign says. Why not write something useful like save the earth from global warming or save the whales. How would someone know if the end was near. I think no one would want to know the truth. So a lot of people would ignore it and just go about their lifes.

EDIT: This just came in: This little guy is now one of the most popular stories on DIGG! Nearly 1100 DIGGS as of right now!

BWA HA HAHAHA HAH AHAHAH HAHAHAAH HA!!!!!!

*ahem* Sorry... got carried away for a moment there.

Thanks to everyone and please keep sending me links to stuff you write and/or post about this.

It Is Done! It Is Done! At Last, The World Is Free!

I love quoting the Ralph Baski movie "Wizards". Great film, too, if you've never seen it.

I was greeted this morning with a look at my web site stat tracking that I had gotten basically more hits in the last 12 hours on my web site, morisecomics.com, than over the course of a normal month. Turns out I made the cut and am now part of the greatest inspirational website I've ever seen, Notcot.org!

Artists, designers, and people all over the world come to this site and look for the latest in interesting and inspiring things, and to make the cut... well, it's just plain awesome!

You can see the original post here.

So far, it's earned me two different blog posts as well, which I think is sweet!

Kellypuff's blog said he was a "cute little guy." Thanks!

Technoarts.net had a nice write-up of my website. Here is what they wrote, translate and re-phased:

Portfolio of the designer and independent illustrator Larry West. Graphic design, illustration, web design, photography… Seen at notcot.org.

Larry says thathis art and its style has been influenced from everything from punk rock to Walt Disney, and that he began to draw at the age of 10. In any case, his independence and liberty are patents, given that neither the charismatic new leader of the White House, nor his 'friend' Hillary, are saved from his critical vision and little optimism of the current world.

I left it largely untouched, but you get the idea. :)


Just got one from awesome dude in Germany on the blog diskursdisko:

Larry West informs the world by means of more than a cute little Cardboard Robot that the end approaches.

Why he does this, his secret remains (for the time being).

More as this develops!
