I’ve been drawing window cleaning cartoons since 1999. As time has passed, I have been able to improve my style. I’ve gone from awful to not so bad and to just o.k. I know, I have a log way to go, but something funny happened last week. I got an e-mail from Jag, he owns Island Window Cleaning. He wanted to use one of my cartoons for a logo on his van. Well, that is not a new request. Many of my cartoons are used throughout the window washing industry for logos, websites and even t-shirts.

Thinking, with out question, he MUST want to use one of my new cartoons. Since they are the best art I’ve drawn EVER! Well, to my surprise, he wanted to use a cartoon from 2001. When he contacted me, I could not find the old high quality image file. So, I suggested that I just draw him a caricature… NOPE, he really wanted that cartoon. Here is what he says:

Hi Chato!
Yes, we really like that picture. I’ll attach the original picture
from your website to this email. The title is “Crouching Ladder/
Hidden squeege”. We really like the picture. If you can please
redraw just the picture as close as possible to the orginal–but,
please do not include the words.We just want the same picture.

I sat down the other day and drew a few samples of the cartoons… I was not happy with any of them till today. So, I inked it and scanned the cartoons and colored it. Below, you can see the finished image. I just sent it to Jag. I hope he likes it! And I hope he can use it!

How much did it cost him for me to do this? Well, I did not charge him a penny! Instead, all I ask is that he pays me what ever he thinks it’s worth to him. This goes for anyone that wants me to do a cartoon for them. You can hire me to do your window cleaning project and if you like it any can donate towards my volunteer work educating people about mental health disorders. You can also help by becoming a window cleaning sponsor for our site. Please feel free to use this cartoon on your site or as clip art.

Window Cleaning Cartoons 2010

Jan 1

Posted by admin in Special Post, window cleaning cartoon | 2 Comments

2010! Wow, we are in the future now, but no spaceships or floating cars. I always wonder what that would be like working on spaceships… I’m sure they will need their window cleaned too. This past year we have see so many changes in our industry. Water Fed Poles and Pure Water Cleaning systems have popped up like crazy. Also we have thousands new window washers out there now. It’s a new industry for many who lost their jobs and picked up a squeegee to make a few bucks. They are finding out the hard way that window cleaning is easy as it seems. I don’t begrudge them, because that is how I got into cleaning 27 years ago. I just want to say to them to remember your not working for a wage, it’s a business and if you treat it right you will have it for many years to come and make good money just cleaning windows.

2010 also ushers in our new blog. I’ve spent the last three months changes my site to make it the biggest Window Cleaning Cartoon and Clipart blog in the industry! O.K., I know it’s the only blog but still I have add a lot of new features. One of the best things I’m going to enjoy is to be able to post about many of my fellow window cleaners blogs, websites and videos. So make sure you contact me via email or friend me on Facebook to let me know about your site or video.

Window Cleaning Cartoon Honors the Life Of Norm Winton

Dec 15

Posted by admin in Special Post, window cleaning cartoon | 3 Comments

Over the years of drawing window cleaning cartoons I have always been asked to do cartoon caricatures or charters of fellow window cleaners. Today I want to share with you some of the great sports that have let me do my best to immortalize them is a cartoons.

Let start with a window cleaner Norm Winton Atlas Building Maintenance Vancouver, WA. I never met Norm in person, we’ve know each other 2000 on one the big there Window Cleaning Forums back then. From the “chat room” and “Message board” technology sprung up the free Yahoo Groups forum. As a window cleaner online networking was new and interesting territory.

Norm was the god sent to one of the forums. He’s what we call lovingly in the industry as an “Old Timer”. Although it does not necessary mean his age but more of his experience and know-how in the window cleaning industry.

When I started drawing the cartoons he was one of my supporters and always understood the reason why I did the cartoons. He know the value of humor, especially in the mundane of window washing.

Norm would always let me know what he thought of the cartoons… Even if he did not always get them.

Hey Chato,

That’s another great cartoon. Good work, or play, or whatever.

Norm Winton Sr.

One of his first favorites cartoons I did was about Water Fed Poles. It was his idea, and the joke was about of a guy using a waterfed pole and the caption says “10 minutes ago I couldn’t even spell window cleaner, now I ‘R’ one.” I drew this was when I was just starting out drawing and really did not have much skill but back then I just did my best.

Over the year I did Norm a few more cartoons.

This cartoon I dedicated to Norm in March 2007 I called it window cleaning Wet Rock and Dry squirrel Method.

Norm was the kind of window cleaner that told it how is, and was happy to help other getting into the industry. For years he offered help to assitance to many window cleaners on the Windows cleaning forum. Even when there was only a few active members you could always count on Norm to post. He would post news stories about the industry and chat with guys about the industry. His last post was on June 10, 2008, Sadly not long after in September 22, 2008 his squeegee and window cleaning advocacy voice went silent.

10 minutes ago I couldn’t even spell window cleaner, now I ‘R’ one.

Window Cleaning Cartoon Video Gag

Dec 1

Posted by admin in New Cartoons | 1 Comment

Life is a comedy filled with up’s and down but to be able to laugh at our selves defines our humanity.

My mission and goal for drawing the Window Cleaning Cartoons has always been very simple. To bring a little humor to our mundane world of window cleaning. Really after cleaning hundreds of thousands of window panes over and over again we all need something to break up the day.

On January 16, 2007 at the dawn of the YouTube age, I did this video goof below. It’s me showing off how I come up with my great ideas for the window cleaning cartoons and clip art. It’s my Video Gag, step by step video on how I draw the window cleaning cartoons. O.k., maybe it’s not real, but it is real funny. In the back ground you can hear George Formby singing “When I’m cleaning windows” on an ukulele. Towards the end one of my girls gets in on the fun questioning what I was doing. It’s a fun vid, and I hope it give you a little giggle or laugh or smile. To date it’s been viewed 1,776! That mean window cleaners around the world have wasted 76.36 hours watching this stupid video… Feel free to add to that number and see the vid today.
