Cartoon Character Jumbles

I've recently begun a series of gouache watercolor illustrations, depicting surreal couplings of pointedly diverse classic cartoon characters, like Popeye/The Thing, Bugs Bunny/Superman, and Spiderman/Little Audrey, playing off their color relationship, as well as the characteristic iconography of their personalities. A few are still available for purchase at Comic Art Collective. I have also received commissions to create specific couplings, the two Tinker bell/Silver Surfer variations, and the one featuring Little Nemo/Linus, being the most recent. See the little gallery below for examples of these. I will be creating more in the near future. Who would you like to see paired up?
