    I've been posting a series of illustrations that I did for a special SpongeBob issue of New York's Village Voice magazine. If you missed the last post, you can check it out right here: SpongeBob illustrations for the Village Voice.
     SpongeBob Gary the Snail and Jellyfish in Bikini Bottom Village Voice Best of NYC cartoon animated drawing by Sherm Cohen
    In case you're wondering why there's so much empty space in the drawing above, it's because this was the table of contents for the special "Best of New York City" issue.
    I drew SpongeBob writing on top of a jellyfish because I wanted to get him high up in the composition. I added Gary the snail in the lower left-hand corner because I knew that Gary is such a fan favorite.

    This is my favorite picture in the entire series -- it illustrated the article on "The Best Art in New York City."

    It was fun to draw the diametrically opposed attitudes toward art expressed by Squidward and SpongeBob. Squidward is all uptight and pretentious about his artwork, put SpongeBob just expresses himself for the pure joy of it.

    Here's the cover from the issue -- I was trying to create a very congested busy version of Bikini Bottom to represent New York City. As usual, SpongeBob is "above it all" and just having a good time despite all of the stressed-out people stuck in traffic below.

    Finally, this last oddball drawing is illustrating an article on the best pastimes in New York City. This was definitely the most vague topic in the bunch, so I just tried to show a bunch of characters engaging in all kinds of nonsense.
    I hadn't posted these images before because I had no idea where to find them. Luckily, I came across some folders of scanned artwork recently while I was trying to clear out some room in my hard drives. The good news is that I found a whole bunch of stuff that I'll be posting in the near future. Stay tuned!
