Ron Coleman

I have been a freelance cartoonist part-time for about 50 years, having sold my first cartoon while in the eighth grade. Since that time my work has appeared in hundreds of magazines, newsletters, newspapers and online. My most notable sales were to Saturday Evening Post, Official Detective, Medical Economics, and Hustler Humor. My day jobs consisted of working for movie studios in Los Angeles including Paramount Pictures, 20th Century Fox, Orion Pictures and Walt Disney Studios. My work in these studios was mostly in the areas of payroll, publicity and advertising. I am now retired but remain active in cartooning. I live in Oakridge, Oregon with my wife.

I was painting the neighbors pickup,

when my youngest son tugged at my shirt.

Then pointed to his nose,

where I could see he had been hurt.

He pointed to the slatted fence,

that enclosed the neighbors back yard.

Where the chickens
