A black and white print featuring hideously whimsical creatures. In this print, there is a boat sailing in wavy water in front of a sharply forested hill. A fish bites the front of the boat. There is some sort of shirtless male figure with glasses atop his bulbous, large nose sitting in the back of the boat holding onto what may be the boat motor. One of his hairy legs hangs over the side. In the front of the boat is a seemingly petrified dog with his mouth widely opened and tongue sticking out. Your imagination is the best description of this piece., Bob Smith; woodblock print; 11.25 x 17.5 inches; 1981-85, A welder by trade with a master's degree in printmaking from the San Francisco Art Institute, Bulwinkle tickles us with his outrageous characters. Dogs and cats, suns and moons, birds, boats, worms, fish, people come to life in the most zany of situations.
