This design for the 1950 Jones family holiday greeting card is mixed media (graphite & India Ink) on paper–and exhibits Chuck Jones' mastery of painting with India Ink, an ability (he elevated it to an art) that he would use in the creation of the final line for his limited editions nearly 30 years later.
I love Chuck’s ink line, his final line for “Crawford” made it one of the most beautifully drawn comic strips of all time!!
This is so nice to be able to view Mr. Jones’ artwork. I miss his Saturday morning cartoons on TV. The new animated cartoons are so awful. We need more people like Mr. Jones again.
