Contextually, Barker is right up there, IMHO (having said that, true story, I failed colouring in between the lines in 3rd class - about age 6 - and got sent back to kindergarten to learn from the experts - that, and watching Neil Armstrong land on the moon - are the most vivid memories I have of my formative schooling years - so what do I know about art, except its mostly an F short of one of my favourite hobbies in my halcyon daze ).
      Come on man. You can't honestly say what frik posted can compare to a Chadbourne or Miller? It's God awful. Certainlly he must of done other work that look likes an adult's work.
      But you saw ol' Neil land on the moon??? I was about to turn 3 years old in July (Aug. 4th is my actually birthday) of 1969 and even I remember watching it on my grandma's and grandpa's old RCA TV.

        I don't think Barker's art is awful. I'm sure many people love it.
        I don't. It's a style I can't relate to at all.

          Count me as one of those dudes who agree with you frik!
          But surely, he has to have other art out there. I was thinking of something mind-bowling like I may have seen in the past, but certainly not the above.

            Well, most of that art is from his Abarat series; I personally like it, but I can't see it illustrating anything other than his young adult novels. Art must compliment the words of an author, and I can't really think of a King work that Barker's art would go with.

                Barker art aside, it's horses for courses really (you either love, like it, hate it, loathe it - or are ambivalent towards it). But, yep, remember the moon landing very well, I was 7, sitting in a country classroom on linoleum in the middle of winter for seven straight hours - fun times

                  Now that's more like it Dan. I see at least a dozen I wouldn't mind seeing in books. I do like this one:

                    LOL they defintely were fun times. Being lil kids and not having to worry about a damn thing except if you're going to get a peanut butter sandwich or a grilled cheese for dinner.
                    What I'd give to go back to those days!!!!
