Jim
Tweedy, born in the late 1950s in Covington,
Louisiana, began his artistic journey at
an early age. From childhood art lessons
with his father and former Disney animator,
Byron Tweedy, to studying under famed former
NASA illustrator, Walter Labiche, Jim developed
his talents into a way of life.
In
May 1992, Jim found his fame with Charlie
the RedCat. In 2002, Jim realized that “man
cannot live by cat alone,” and created
Jim Tweedy’s
Friendly Doggies. These cartoon dogs are
humorous and endearing, and have captured
the hearts of animal lovers and art collectors
alike.
With
new additions being added daily, and to
continue spreading the puppy love, Jim
takes part in juried art shows nationwide,
and frequently creates commissioned art
pieces. And now for the first time ever,
his work is available to purchase online!
