hello byob. 8/1 is Bob Harrison Day. Bob Harrison is the guy who painted everyone's favorite hammock kitty. he sadly passed away in 2018, so it's time to celebrate his existence by throwing him a birthday bash every year. it's 8/3 but that doesn't mean we can't still celebrate hammock kitty and bob harrison. please post your favorite hammock kitty and bob harrison moments itt. thank you

this may be a memory of a fever dream but i think there was a thread here some years ago where his identity was figured out? i don't know if the original source painting was ever found but dude drew a lot of cats. this thread is reminding me i really should just go on ebay or something and find one of his books for sale.

he did in fact draw lots of animals in comfy situations. here's his obituary if anyone particularly cares: https://www.walkermn.com/obituaries/robert-bob-harrison/article_bf4ec644-cbef-11e8-bcd4-df8872883934.htmlquote:His greatest passion in life was art. He was a very talented artist and portrayed that with sketches, paintings and bronze sculptures to name a few. Bob would enter his art at the State Fair. A lot of Bob’s art was inspired while living in scenic northern Minnesota. Bob loved living the simple life — growing gardens and going to the Casino with his longtime companion of 25 years, Cathy Spartz. Bob also spent time in Arizona during the winter months where he enjoyed hanging out with friends at Lake Havasu. there is a lot of confusion as to who painted the kitties as there is another famous artist named Bob Harrison who is from england. the real bob harrison's work is frequently misattributed to the british Bob Harrison, though if you look at the british one's work it is clear that they are very different artists

My favorite Bob Harrison paintings are the series of hammock kitties he made, there are six I've found so far, all different tabbies. He was a cool guy! |

Between this and that one thread being cited in the Scientology copyright dispute several years ago I can't believe how much publicity BYOB is getting lately |
