"I grew up in the United States but came to love international travel when I visited Europe at age 20. Happily, my cartooning career has allowed me to travel to many places around the world. Five years ago, I moved away from the U.S. permanently and now live in Central Mexico. The differences in culture and the challenges of learning a new language have been thrilling and are inspiring me to create art of all sorts that is very different than my work with Bizarro," the artist tells us more about himself.
"Shortly after moving to Mexico, a few scenes of a story popped into my head while I was drawing my daily cartoons. I wrote them down but didn’t know what it was or why this piece of a story suddenly came to me. Sometime later, a few more scenes appeared in consciousness so I wrote those down, too. The scenes began to come more quickly and often and I realized I was writing a story. But the story seemed very clearly to be coming from somewhere else. It took me a few years of working off and on to finish the story and now I am illustrating it and posting it online, free for anyone to read as it is being created. When I have finished illustrating the story, I’ll publish it as a book. I can honestly say the whole experience has been more exciting than anything I’ve ever worked on. https://peyotecowboy.net"
