A few years back, Clifford was working in the "Big Apple", where he painted the worlds largest billboard on the side of a building in the city and made friends with a lot of other artists trying to make it there.  Madonna had just come out with her book called SEX;  it had a metal cover and was well, I'm sure you've heard.  Clifford and bunch of his artist friends put together a show entitled "Madonna X-mas" and you may imagine they were somewhat X-rated by most standards.  This was Cliffords entry, and soon after it was up someone from Disney tried to get it taken out of the show.  Claimed it was illegal, an insult to Mickey and the whole Disney organization.  Well the ACLU jumped right in and said that the "fair use exemption clause" of the copyright laws made it just fine for an original painting to be done and even sold.  The painting just couldn't be reproduced and the reproductions sold.  So Clifford and the show got a lot of attention and someone from Disney was reported to have sworn and sulked, and probably even more. Anyway, we think it's just cute, but it was the lump in Mickey's pants that got them going so hard.  Was that a pun?  And no one seems to know who the guy with her might be.  (And who cares?)

(He will also paint original copies in almost any size you like, up to about 60" x 40".)
