When Somebody Loved Me...
Painter, Photoshop
June 2006


   
Did this one for the Daily Sketch Forum- the subject was "Evil Versions of Disney Characters". I got the idea came from Sergio Leone, who cast Henry Fonda, the perennial all-American good guy, as stone-cold killer 'Frank' in "Once Upon A Time In the West". The Irony was lost on audiences at the time- almost no-one went to see it. Today it's recognised as the best western of all time (although personally, I call it the slowest).
Anyhow, I reckon Woody's been modelled closely on the kind of good guy Fonda made legend, I thought I'd mine it for irony just one more time.

This one is especially dedicated to anyone working as a floor salesman in any store selling big-screen TV's around the time 'Toy Story 2' came out on DVD. Yeehaa.
