Gary Baseman's Happy Idiot show in NYC

Good interview with artist Gary Baseman (creator of Disney's Teacher's Pet). He's got a new showing of his paintings at the Earl McGrath Gallery in NYC.

Even working with Disney— it's been really great, but I had to basically give away an organ. Coming from illustration, I usually get to maintain the rights to my art. With Teacher's Pet, I had to sell them the rights to the characters. My art is still my art, but those characters are their property now. If I ever use them, I ask their permission to do so.
