Art Clokey

Hello! The Google front page has informed me that today is Art Clokey's 90th brithday. I was aware of his creation, Gumby, but didn't know much about the man. He seems like a interesting chap and I'll look further into his life and work some time soon. His first film (entitled 'Gumbasia') is a perfect example of how you can create exciting and entertaining stop-motion work without spending a lot of time or money; his exuberant ideas, and a bit of clay was all he needed.
