Artist In Training
One day Fraz’s paintings might be displayed in the Louvre. Or maybe not.
(This comic strip was previously published on June 17, 2010.)
Our friend Andro gave Fraz a suit of armor and a sword so that he can defend his chocolate from any thieves. Andro’s original post of Stretching Times can be seen over at his new blog.
Keep your dreams alive Fraz!!
People used to think that Van Gogh’s paintings are rubbish…but look at how expensive they are now
Hellooooooooo Miss. Novia and what a lovely surprise seeing you here, and I think that you have been searching for the golden pancake 🙂 I will share my chocolates with you on my return 🙂 xxxx
I hope I get a share of those chocolates too!
I always save some of
my chocolates for you Fraz 🙂
I knew you would!
Yaaiii Chocolate!! I haven’t ate one for months.
Months without chocolate?? You need to visit Winky’s chocolate factory. It’s all you can eat! And it’s free!
The thing about chocolate is…I can’t stop eating so I prefer avoiding it. My baby turtles are not the only one doing a diet 😉
Poor Novroz! Diets don’t sound like fun. Wombies get to eat chocolate every day!
I know 🙁
Hope you’ll never have to do any diet.
Me too! Maybe you should try eating more chocolate not less!
Dont encourage her Fraz!!!
We are on diet and she has to do it too!! Otherwise we will go on strike
You have a nice family but I don’t think I’d wanna live with you. I couldn’t go on a diet without chocolate!
I will keep my dreams alive! I could be Fraz Gogh!
Looking forward to see your first exhibition 🙂
]You should make stickman your main character 😉
Yeah, I could be the famous stickman artist!
Has anyone ever made stickturtle?
I never heard of it. Maybe you could do the first one, Kroten!
I hear stick figures are making a comeback, Fraz. They’ll all be laughing 😉
Hey you have beaent me to the pancakes yet again Loon 🙁 Grrrr one of these mornings I will be the first to slice the pancake and take the biggest piece 🙂 Have fun today xxxx
Ah Androgoth you know it takes an earlybird to catch a Loon 😉 You have a wicked day too xx
Thank you Loon and
I will remember that 🙂 😉 lol
Andro xxxx
Stick figures are awesome! Maybe I should paint some laughing ones next.
I like your painting Fraz so keep up the good work and who knows what gallery your paintings could be seen inside? 🙂 🙂 Here have some of my wine gums and spambo wambo burgers for adding such brilliant work 🙂
I think all the galleries would want my art! Wombie art rules!
Yes and everyone wants your pancakes too 🙂
And my milkshakes and pirate pizza!
Yes those too but mainly
your secret chocolate stash 🙂
I’m keeping that secret!
Thank you for adding my slant on medieval fraz and the stretching times of a young Wombie, actually have you noticed how low his knees are, I never realised until now 🙂 lol
I don’t think that Fraz minds though, especially when he gets to be the most wickedest Knight in all of Wombania 🙂
Have a great day today Peter 🙂
I suppose when Fraz got stretched, he didn’t stretch proportionally. But he got to be a knight, so he probably doesn’t care.
That’s true and maybe he was too busy scoffing all the goodies I left for him for trying on that suit of armour in the first place 🙂
He wasn’t too keen at first but after seeing the Zombies run away from the point of his sword he soon warmed to the idea 🙂
Yeah being a knight is cool! Sorta like a pirate but with armor!
I wonder what I will have you doing
next time I add one of my drawings? 🙂
I dunno but I bet it’ll be something good!
Actually, for a guy who has to stand on a box to get to it, the painting is quite good.
Yay, some people appreciate my art!
So true. Had someone appreciated Hitler’s art talent at age six, he might have grown up to be a different person. Those jerks!

Everyone who appreciates my art gets a free chocolate bar!
Ha! I feel your pain, Fraz… I feel your pain!
🙂
Us artists have to stick together!
Like glue you mean?
More like maple syrup!
I knew it would
be something to eat 🙂 lol
Food is always more fun!
I am happy to report that one ounce of dark chocolate a day IS good for you. It has antioxidants and it helps you to relax.
Only two more steps to go! 😀
I propose a toast for Dr. Murphy!
A milkshake toast!
I would concur. Dark chocolate is the basis of an excellent diet. For Wombies at least.
And pigs do fly, too! Prancer proves it!

Yay! Only one more step to go!
I appreciate your work Fraz. I truly do.
Have a fabulous day filled with chocolate. 🙂
Thanks Sandee! You’re the best!
Your and excellent artist, Fraz. Don’t you let anyone every tell you different! Everyone has different taste is art, and what one doesn’t like, it could be the exact things someone else wants!
And here….french fries and milkshake for an afternoon snack!
Milkshakes and french fries are the kind of tastes that everyone likes!
One day I want to be an artist like you!
There’s plenty for everyone too! 🙂
Aw…that’s so kind of you Fraz! 🙂
Maybe I could be famous painting food!
You famous no matter what you do….Your Fraz the great!
Fraz the great! I like that!!
I thought you might. 😉
I bet you’d like this candy bar too. I think it has your name on it. Yep, it does.
Well it did! Before I ate it!
I knew that too. Here, Fraz, it’ cake and ice cream time, followed with a big bowl of popcorn and wine gums! 🙂
Yay! Dessert time is always the best!
Did you save me some, Fraz? I’ll share my choco gummy worms with you.
Of course! It’s more fun to have dessert with friends!
I really love the artwork that Andro does of the Wombies. This one is no exception. He has a a way of just making art fun! 🙂
Andro’s drawings are always fun. Even if little Fraz had to stretched for this one!
That’s the tallest I’ve ever seen Fraz! 🙂
And I think the tallest he’ll ever want to be!
I guess he got stretched to his limit. 🙂
Well he’s always stretching me to the limit!
That’s pretty easy to believe, Chris. 😉 🙂
What?? No I’m not!
I don’t think that Chris would agree and, well, all my Wombie’s stretch me to the limit sometimes. I would imagine you no different. But hey…I love ya anyways!…And your cute!
I’m not cute!!
I’m a pirate! And a knight! And a whole bunch of other stuff!
I know, and one of them happens to be that word you don’t like to be called. 🙂
Noo!!
Maybe I can get Genie to make that word disappear.
Do you really, truly and honestly want me to quit calling you that forever and ever?…Like never every again?
Yeah! Maybe. I dunno.
She calls me that too, and don’t like it much either. But she doens’t say it to make us mad though.
No. I guess not. Adults are weird sometimes.
Winky should be ashamed of himself! Frazzie, your art is awesome and I would buy one of your paintings any day. And have some chocolate and winegums on me. Hope you feel better soon. HUGS xo
Thanks Wendy! You can have any of my art you’d like!
I think Winky was just teasing me really.
Ok…Winky is forgiven for now. 🙂
Whew!
Can I have some wine gums and chocolate on you too Wendy, it sounds kind of naughty but I am all for it 🙂 lol xxxx
Andro…do I need to remind you that this is a family friendly site? 😛 Behave yourself! xo
I was thinking that you were treating
us, oh I see what you mean now 🙂 😉 lol
That thought never entered my mind 😉
Have a lovely rest of day Wendy and we
will take a rain check on the other thing,
erm the chocol and wine gums surprise
sounds too wicked, even for me 🙂 xxxx
Keep at it Fraz. Don’t let Binky get you down!
I won’t! Thanks Chris!
You carry on painting stick-like figures Fraz if it was good enough for L. S. Lowry then it’s good enough for our little Frazzie too 🙂
I’ll try to paint like him then!
Yes a good idea 🙂
🙂
Not exactly getting overwhelmed with encouragement.
No one ever appreciates young artists!
Pigs can fly Winky. I remember on the muppet show “PIGS IN SPAAAACE!!!”
And my Prancer can fly too! He’s a pig BTW.
https://www.wombania.com/fan-art-fraz-and-his-flying-pig-by-debbie-adams/
Ah yes I remember that one Deb did.
I forgot about Prancer! I should have said when reindeer fly. . . Oh, never mind.
IT’S TRUE – Most great artists of the past have PASSED! Maybe try doing some art ” to DIE for”! W.C.C.
I dunno if I wanna die for my art!
This reminds me of some of my art school teachers!
I don’t want teachers like that!
Old ones aren’t either
Not usually. But some old and dead ones are.
The Louvre is a worthy ambition. 🙂 All hail chocolate!
The Louvre should do an exhibit on the art of chocolate.
Don’t worry, that naysayer will be praising your efforts and telling everyone that he knows and inspires you soon enough. 🙂
I hope so! I wanna be rich!
Don’t give up, Fraz. Winky just doesn’t understand that some discoveries take time. Tho… I’d would like to see chocolate become a diet food & still taste yummy 😉
Yeah, no one understands us artists either!
Luckily I can eat all the chocolate I want! Sorry.
well I understand the hunger for chocolate! I will send you one of the big chocolate dipped strawberries my hubby gave me for mothers day! even tho I’m not his mom, ain’t he sweet!
they are big & juicy, open wide, it’s on its way!
That was good! I’ll have Winky send you some Mother’s Day chocolates from his factory. They’re yummy, too!
No respect…artists must pay pay pay dues.
I’d rather just paint paint paint!
always keep your belief in yourself, Fraz, keep your dreams alive and you never know, you could become famous one day and Winky will have to eat his words, and the chocolate. 🙂
xxx
I’m hoping I’ll be rich and famous!
And one day I receive a big box of dark chocolates from my Fraz Binky Co.
Cheers 🙂
They’re the best chocolates!
So you’re saying there is a chance? 🙂
There’s more than I chance I think!
I think it looks great but what do I know? I don’t know how to draw… well maybe I do but only as good as Fraz.
Well that’s pretty good ! Are you a famous artist?
Just gotta do art for your self first. Forget the critics!
Yeah, that’s what I think! I paint because I like to paint! Plus I’d like to sell one for a million dollars.
I’m an old artist but it looks like I won’t be appreciated until after I am dead. I think I’ll just remain unappreciated and stick around with you younger artists.
I guess I’d rather be unappreciated too rather than dead!
Where there’s art, there is a critic.
yeah. And they probably can’t paint!
Don’t give up Fraz 🙂
I won’t! I’m gonna be a famous artist one day!
Aww…well hey ..you know..pigs (swine) did fly ..well they flu (flew)..and anyway..I like his drawing!
I’m glad someone likes my painting! Wanna buy it?
Ooo…erm…how much is it? Would I need to strike the lottery or something to afford it, Fraz?
Is a million dollars too much?
Better than most modern art!
Yay! I think I’ll paint some more!
It is a sign of a true artist to have someone scoff. Just remember, even great artists have a bargain canvas somewhere.
Yeah most people don’t know real art when they see it! I think they’re just jealous!
Indubitably. All the green distorts what they are seeing.
I wouldn’t mind seeing some green money from my art though!
