Friends, I can’t thank you enough for visiting my site over the years. I’ve worked a lot of fun projects which I have enjoyed posting for you all to see. Now I’ve got a bit of new dreaming to share; my gag panel cartoon ‘OFF THE PACE’. It’s been a mile of long road, pot [...]
OH MY MERCY! I couldn’t be more excited—the prima donna of all fillies Diva Chalkchaser and her dedicated jockey Filep Szabo are about to make their web debut PREAKNESS STAKES DAY—May 21st! IT’S OFFICIAL — www.offthepace.net — THE HORSE RACING CARTOON IS HERE! (Click on the image below to enlarge) ‘Not all wisecracking race mares [...]
Blind date suitors will always face their fair share of polite opposition, but not often is that voice of dissension a roaring meow. Although our flapper gal seems hotsy-totsy over her new found ‘daddy’, the general consensus among the feline rank and file needs more convincing. Perhaps showing up empty handed wasn’t a good rule [...]
Greetings and welcome to the blogs new look! Not sure how this all will work- I’m not exactly an internet maven and this interface is giving my pea brain the fits. As I dabble in areas of limited expertise, take a moment to scurry about and let me know if this site hits your ‘wow’ [...]
‘For unto Us a Child is born, unto Us a Son is given: and the government shall be upon His shoulder: and His name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. Isaiah 9: 6 Cover art for my church’s Christmas bulletin from 2007. Inspired by artist Jan [...]

Help soften the blow of your carbon footprint by spreading some good news this holiday season: from his snazzy new threads to his eco-friendly corn-2- ethanol powered flying reindeer, Santa Claus is going green!

A little ‘bait’ (insert sigh from bad pun here) of a new project for ‘Officer Snook and Youth Environmental Programs’: a sticker pad full of bright and shiny creatures from the deep big blue. Coral reef health is a top priority on our good officer’s ‘to do’ list. Getting little minds excited with cartoony observations [...]
My hiatus ends with good reports- seems while you all have been pondering my whereabouts, I’ve made good use of curious time by pounding business pavements off the beaten path (snippets from which to be posted soon.) During my sparser minutes, I rafted one of those ‘do it yourselfer‘ books and wadded into Adobe Flash [...]
Not sure what Snook’s got brewin’, but since it’s minus a flame, my dad’s take is its being fueled by geo fusion (ain’t he a smarty?) Officer Snook swaps his trademark police chapeau for this puffy chefs number as he puts on the roll of creator of a more colorful ocean floor. Another successful 7-Dippity [...]
Those folks at 7-Dippity keep me in the swim of things; their latest project is designed to keep little minds preoccupied while awaiting kid sized meals in this restaurant activity menu. This snippet is of a shark who’s a real speed demon behind the wheel. Hope he’s not in a ‘no wake’ zone. A.E. Sabo [...]
Sweet mother of pearl!The time has finally arrived for me to introduce the new A.E. Sabo Studio site. Designed by dear friend and fellow graphic design, Philippe H. Petot, this little number contains the beginnings of what shall become a growing display of art goodies delivered with a splash of flash powered fun. Click on [...]
Commentary: Kentucky Derby 2008 She measured at seventeen hands of captivating power: steel speed adrenaline stealth in gun smoke gray. Without apology, she won our attentions, our wagers, and our respect. In a pulse thrusting two minute mile and a quarter, American racing had embraced its new queen. From the start, she proved worthy and [...]
The Suwannee might be cresting high, but it won’t dampen the fun at the first ever Florida Hiking Festival in picturesque White Springs. A collaboration between designer (insert my name here) and FTA staffers came up with this years logo design- guaranteed to make you look spiffy in any size commemorative garment of purchase. Grab [...]
OH MY MERCY! Have I missed y’all! This year has started off with a bang: new clients and projects, not to mention a return to studies at my old alma mater. Posted above is one of my new promotional pieces for 2008, coming to a mailbox near you. Thankee kindly for all your continuing web [...]
If you played your cards right, old man Christmas will have left a few goodies under your tree, and although everyone is familiar with his usual modus operandi, most folks might not be aware how Santa maneuvers through the old Florida landscape. Best way to deliver Christmas joy is by foot. So grab your hiking [...]
©2007 Ann E. Sabo More clip art from the Florida Trail Association collection. By the looks of that smile, I’m glad one of us got her holiday shopping done early….(like I always say, ‘never be afraid of brightly neon wrapped packages: those glowing papers saves for a lot less toe stubbing when maneuvering through the [...]

Now, before y’all start giving me the stink eye, this is not a commentary on the ‘dos’ or the ‘don’ts’ of legalized gambling. It’s more a rant on how governmental fires place ever increasing heat on our already evaporating Florida history. Whether it’s paving the Everglades, propagandaing mythical bullet trains or allowing for airports were [...]
©2007 A.E.Sabo A good rule of thumb for the novice domestic is don’t bother dusting where folks can’t see. My swiffer duster was maneuvering at a maddening pace when it caught the spoke of a wrought iron candle stick perched upon a very high shelf. The first tug from the end of my extended arms [...]
I like to quote Walt Disney when I can. No real need to mention, but he is much more quote worthy then me. This man made it happen: he dreamt it, spoke it, created it, conquered it and delivered it. I doubt the word ‘no’ ever littered his vocabulary. Then there are folks, well, like [...]
