I recently read this article about the quirky US roadside phenomena generically known as Muffler Men, though any individual giant might advertise something other than car parts. Apparently they are now very rare, but we have one in our town. Malibu’s version, erected in the late 1960s atop Frostie Freeze, originally held a massive burger. He was re-styled in 1988 to be La Salsa Man; you can read more about the conversion here. Now he’s missing his serape and tire sandals, and the store below remains empty because of septic tank issues. I wonder what his next iteration might be? Plumbing Man?

Thanks for sharing, I did not know about muffler men, it’s not a thing in Germany. I love the little informations I get by visiting your blog every day 🙂
May I ask which technical steps you take to share your sketches from your sketchbook on your blog? Or is there a blogpost about these things you have written yourself or can recommend? I left social media and the algorithm of surching systems are not very good in surching for blogposts… Have nice day!

Hi Frauke! I take a photo of my sketchbook page, then color-correct it in Photoshop (basically, make the white page white). I save as a big jpeg and upload to my Flickr account for storage. Then, when I make my blog post, I import from URL. This way, my images are just linked to my Flickr, rather than being stored in WordPress. I hope I answered your question; let me know if you need more clarification.
