Ape Worship by Todd Schorr

The work of Todd Schorr is both eclectic and surreal, and at all times, rooted in the fantastic. The work is incredibly intricate, and almost painstaking, and many cite Todd Schorr to be one of the staples of modern comic art and illustration.The following extract is taken from Todd Schorr’s website:

“Todd Schorr was born on January 9, 1954 in New York City and grew up as a child in Oakland, New Jersey. Showing a compulsion for drawing at an early age, his parents enrolled him in Saturday morning art classes when he was five years old. Deeply affected by fantasy movies such as the 1933 film classic “King Kong” and the early animated cartoons of Walt Disney and Max Fleischer, their influence along with comic books such as “Mad” would have a lasting effect on Schorr’s developing visual vocabulary.”
