Tomben Twerls

In 2013 I started to develop a cartoon character just for fun. I got busy with work for many years and stuck him in a file. With the need to shelter in place it gave me a lot of time to catch up on work and home repair plus take up some of my creative projects again. I used to have lots of hobbies but modern life seems to schedule out any free time so hobbies fell by the wayside.

On Easter Sunday 2020 I launched a Facebook page for my cartoon “Tomben Twerls” (page is under this name and is for public view). I wanted to invite my blog readers to join the page if desired and enjoy the adventures of Tomben.
He is a wood sprite and is 5″ tall. He lives in the woodland near residential areas and interacts with insects, wildlife and the occasional domesticated pet. He grew a bit since I first posted this- now I have him as an 8″ tall wood sprite. I guess 5″ was a little too small!

I have posted some of the first entries from the Facebook page and will add some more to the blog occasionally.
This seems like a super time to have some creative fun, revisit lost ideas and share a laugh with friends, family and the community.

Fast Forward to 2024 and things have really changed. I retired last year and can finally spend some real quality time on the blog, website and my cartoon. I am really enjoying having this creative time to draw and write fun stuff. If my squiggly cartoon drawings make you smile or chuckle then I have achieved my goal of bringing a bit of happiness and humor into your day.

Cheers…………….Lois
