cartooning with Age Scott!
‘Raptoonist’ keeps on drawing: By JESSICA A. YORK/Times-Herald staff writer
Adrian “Age” Scott works on a drawing in his Benicia apartment. Scott draws comic books featuring hip hop characters and calls himself a “raptoonist.” He has a following for his characters Won and Phil. (Chris Riley/Times-Herald) BENICIA – Being a prolific and relevant cartoonist requires an artist to read everything, stay informed about all the latest news and trends and keep a healthy background in popular culture. So says artist Adrian “Age” Scott, a 38-year-old teacher’s assistant who has been bringing the world of hip hop to life through his comic strip characters for the past 14 years. “I know (comic books are) a powerful tool,” Age said, sitting in front of his art table in his Benicia studio apartment. “I learned to read from comic books. I have to keep representing hip hop … Somebody has to be the representative of the time.” He terms himself a “raptoonist,” someone who first brought the hip hop culture out in cartoon strips. By regularly traveling Adrian “Age” Scott would like to be the next Charles Schultz, in the meantime he wants to blaze a trail for local artists. (Chris Riley/Times-Herald) to comic book conventions with a backpack full of his self-produced comic books for years, Scott has built up a modest but devoted following for his “Won and Phil” characters through 54 comic book editions. “I’m not making a lot of money off the books, but my reward is when someone comes up and says ‘I only came here (to a convention) for your book,’ ” Scott said. He said his characters appeal to readers because they don’t take themselves too seriously. There isn’t any super villain about to destroy the earth who must be defeated. The cartoon duo’s trials are more down-to-earth, like one episode in which a character finds himself obsessed with social networking Web site Myspace.com. When Scott isn’t sitting at his worktable, penciling Advertisement VallejoInsurance.com in some biting commentary for his two dopey embodiments of the hip hop culture, sort of the “Ren and Stimpy” of rap, he works with troubled kids in Concord. At the Olympic/Alliance High School in Concord, Scott is a teacher’s assistant, basketball coach, conflict mediator and art teacher. With an excited smile, Scott said the kids he works with help keep him connected to the latest trends, while he tries to open their eyes to their artistic potential. “The arts are not even felt in (places like) Vallejo,” Scott said. “The closer you get to the city (San Francisco) the more there is. You have to encourage, to show kids what they can do.” Scott, who also occasionally teaches art classes at the John F. Kennedy Library in Vallejo, shares one of his prouder accomplishments: You can check out one of his books from the library’s shelves. One of Scott’s newest pieces is a comic strip called “The Age Page,” a somewhat autobiographical piece that chronicles the life of a cartoonist always looking for new inspiration.
