Kitchen Kabaret Art

Yes, this has nothing to do with America Sings, but I like Kitchen Kabaret as well, but not as much as America Sings.







America Sings Art



Since I never got to see America Sings since it was removed before I was born(1995), I satisfy myself by collecting items from the attraction. Luck seemed to be on my side when I managed to win a lot of items from eBay. My first item was a LP vinyl record. This took too long to get to me because the seller lived in Hawaii and I live in Nebraska. So, thinking that the item got lost or something, I won another one, which has colorful illustrations by Marc Davis. And ironically, a few days after I won that one, the first record arrived. But I didn't mind, since both records are unique. Then I got a flier from 1975 promoting the attraction, a cast member ribbon, an elongated penny, and a pin with characters from the Old West segment(Saddlesore Swanson and the Boothill Boys). Then a really good friend of mine who lives in California got me a script for the show as a late birthday present. I was really happy, and I keep them in the same box the first record came in.<



I just love drawing these characters. I feel a lot better when I do. You may notice the grey character next to Eagle Sam. I am aware it is not from America Sings. That grey critter is a character of mine I call Dhevil. This was done last year in Art Class with watercolor colored pencils, which suck since they can mess up a perfectly good piece of work.



This was just something I doodled in my free time and decided I really liked it.



Ollie Owl is pretty hard for me to get right on the first try. I just can't draw owls very well.



This is my best piece of Saddlesore Swanson. He started out as black and white until I decided color needed to be present.



This used to be my best work until the one above came to be. I have a video of me drawing the rest of it.



These are just a bunch of ridiculous doodles I did of Saddlesore Swanson. This is also my reference for him.



The Boothill Boys aren't as hard as Ollie, but they still take a long while to get right.



This is just a dumb cartoon of the Boothill Boys abandoning their posts in Splash Mountain and going somewhere else.



The stork in the finale of the show. I am aware he had no name, but something about him made me call him Ozzy. Maybe it's those glasses.
