My Masterwerk*


I have recently been asked where I get my inspiration from.
Like many artists before me, I draw it from everyday life.
This me and Buck and IanDownTheHall buying fruit on the corner.

This is me looking at Fatty.

This is a portrait Mum took of me with my masterwork Headless Squirrel.

I am grateful to Mum and my many sponsors in public
 and private collections who have allowed me to complete
 my rigorous examination of the zeitgeist.
According to Professor Joba of The Tappan Academy:
Buster's work is way cool. Except he took my idea. 
My squirrel is more messed up than his. 

This is Benny's latest: SuperSlobber.

love
 from
 Buster


*masterwerk=masterwork
That is German. I mostly speak dog.

    Buster - I love the art! The way that you delicately removed the head without signigicant damage to the rest of the body is inspired! Bravo!

    This was one of your funniest posts ever. Thank you for all of that dry (i.e. slobberless) humor! Hugs with love

    I respect how you've channeled your feelings about Fatty into your art. I don't think anyone who sees Headless Squirrel will forget the Sturm und Drang that Fatty has brought to your life. (Strum und Drang is also German, but you probably knew that)

    Buster, You know Baxter reads your blog every day, dont you?

    And I especially appreciate the way you got the fur to clump realistically on the headless squirrel. Fine attention to detail.

    Hi Buster,

    Did you get the inspiration for your masterwork on headless squirrel from Fatty?

    Licks, hero
