The Pogo comical books are a treasure trove of Kelly wit and foolery, all in color and for a thin dime (well, nowadays more like a fat check). In this rushing headlong whirled, it's nice to smell the old newsprint and meditate on the slow and gentle life in the Okefenokee.

My name is Thom Buchanan.
I'm an artist and photographer.
People are my favorite subjects to portray in art and photos. My wife (and studio partner) has called that my 'people skills', as I've been passionately creating portrait studies for many years.
I refer to myself as a pictorialist, a combination of image-making and journalist. Images are my life.
