Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for November 06, 2013

Least of all Mom.

Splendid work of art!

Throw him a bone, Mom.

Monsieur Duchamp wants his royalty.

And now behold “Nude being grounded for a day!”

้hahaah sexy and Nude…. ist the same…?

A Classic!

Try it at school.

Classic Calvin……..

When my nephew was a baby, he ran to the living room nude when my sister had company and yelled, :“I wanna go to sleep the way Daddy goes to sleep.”

She gets it. He just doesn’t quite get…the art of how.

Then in the last panel, there’s the famous “Nude Taking a Bubble Bath, with Talking Tiger.”

another example why this is the BEST comic strip EVER! Watterson is a genius

The fact that nobody understands you doesn’t mean that you are an artist.

Wait!! or does it mean that you are an artist??

Here’s one more for today:Click here: Thatababy (March 2, 2012)

Performance art is not Mom’s thing, Calvin.

Art is in the eye of the beholder.

XP i have seen that picture, it looks more like an explosian at a shingle factory

O_O i think calvins mom is a nude on strike! O_O

First smile of the day,

Response of Glaring Mother – also art!

Mom may be pea-ohed by the fact that he’s sopping wet [or so it appears to me] more than by the fact that he’s naked asa jaybird….

@Hobbes,People who SAY cheese while naked are liable to get their picture taken.

Mom doesn’t CARE. I assume the original “Nude” was dry.

I can’t see his noodle.

whats wrong with eating cheese in the nude!especially when all my clothes are in the hamper.i am an expert procrastinator

Life is short. Play naked.

You cannot play those sort of games with Mom… never.

Sounds like something my week old grandson may do in a few years.

Calvin is a closet art connoisseur. At least Calvin isn’t ashamed of his bod. No one told him he had to be.

Inhibition is not his mission

I LOVE this guy !! Never, ever grow up please

Mum has no sense of humour whatsoever.

LOL xxx

@harlequindugong1914: You’re welcome. With your interest in Peanuts, I would highly recommend visiting the Charles Schulz Museum in Santa Rosa, California.

It’s not that nobody understands art. It’s “Calvin’s art” people don’t understand. Lol

Absolutely.

Nude in bathtub where he belongs…:)

I can’t see anything!

Clearly Mom is sexually repressed.

From Seinfeld episode “The Apology”:

ELAINE: Whoa! Walking around naked? Ahh… that is not a good look for a man.

GEORGE: Why not? It’s a good look for a woman.

ELAINE: Well, the female body is a… work of art. The male body is utilitarian, it’s for gettin’ around, like a jeep.

Oh, she knows. She’s just critiquing his pastiche.

My dad has a copy of this in his livingroom. It’s a fine painting, but it took me a while to pick out the different parts of it. For those who have trouble, here’s a hint: it shows the nude at different stages of his(her?) descent.

Look at Off The Mark tomorrow.
