About Craig Morris

      Greetings,  

        Here's bit about myself.  I live and grew up in the Northwest ...around Portland Oregon.  Actually, I've lived in Vancouver Washington since the early 70's and consider myself a dyed in the wool Washingtonian..   After a good run of 30 years in the electronics industry, mostly in sales, in 2002 and at 56 years of age i found myself without a job.  Some Chinese dude was estatic to take over my responsibilities.  I figured I was going to have to re-invent myself as the electronics business is a young man's business if you're starting out with a new company.  Lucky for me a certain big box warehouse store decided they needed someone to council their customers in their purchase of electronics items...such as TV's, computers, and cameras.  Something of which I knew about.  Honestly, retail was never my cup of tea but hey, I'm a practical guy...paying the bills was a very powerful offsetting factor.  Darned if after awhile I began to really enjoy this new gig and after 8 years with a great company I'm still at it...and documenting it with cartoons.

      Cartooning has been with me my entire life.  I have cartoons I've drawn in the third grade.  Cartooning to me has been a perfect way to express lifes little everyday absurdities.  Over the years I've drawn thousands.  My Dad was actually the one who got me started in this. It's all his fault.  I draw no responsibility here.  He drew whenever the whim hit him.  A letter, birthday card, as a joke...it was always appreciated and fun.  I was hooked at a tender age.

      My favorite cartoonist of all time was Gary Larsen.  I love his humor and his simplistic style of his drawing.  If you see alittle bit of him in my drawings I can't help it.  We both come with the same sick mind.  The reason for the website is simply to get my cartoons out there.  I hope you see yourself in some of these cartoons and get a laugh.

 

Regards,

Craig Morris
