Happy 75th Birthday Jim Henson!

Today we salute Jim Henson...I know I know this is a blog dedicated to animation and graphic arts, not puppets. But no one can deny the inspiration Jim had on countless generations of artists and animators. He also did a fare amount of drawing himself, sketching up multiple puppet designs to get them just right before they were built. SO....today I showcase some of the artwork of the iconic Jim Henson...enjoy!!!

Jim Henson's creations have also inspired countless artworks. From comics to movie posters to t-shirts, Jim's multiple creations pop up all over in the world of art. Here's a sampling.

Happy Birthday Jim Henson...you are greatly missed..but your legacy lives on.
