We interrupt our weekly journey through my MAD archives for this important announcement… my son-in-law Leif Sundberg aka “The Swedish Ninja” is competing for the 4th time tonight on “American Ninja Warrior” at 8/7c on NBC! Rumor has it he’s one of the early runners so tune in on time to watch all the action. You MIGHT even catch some of the Richmond clan cheering him on! Leif is a phenomenal athlete and his run is sure to be exciting! The above piece of art was a commission for a young MAD and Swedish Ninja fan. #americanninjawarrior #ninjawarrior READ MORE

This is out in the wild now so I can share it here. Earlier this month I did an illustration job for CNN for the newest of their entertainment documentary series entitled “History of the Sitcom”.

This past weekend I was in New York to FINALLY do the last of my pandemic postponed workshops. This workshop was originally scheduled to take place in early May 2020, but was postponed due to the then newly raging pandemic.

I am being asked by a few if I will be doing in-person workshops again. I don’t have an answer for that. I know I will not… READ MORE

I’ve been MIA for a while here on the blog, and for those frequent visitors and readers I apologize for that. A major job plus a big family wedding plus a family medical crisis plus a make up workshop took me away from the studio and any blogging for a while. The job is complete, the wedding over, the medical crisis is moving in a positive direction and the workshop was just this past weekend. I’ll be back in the studio later today and it will be (almost) business as usual. I’ve got to get back to work on CLAPTRAP and other stuff, but I’ll… READ MORE
