I was not a fan the first time I saw the Adventure Time cartoon, but my son Matt told me to give it a chance. I watched a few more episodes and now I am a fan. I wanted to obtain a sketch of Finn and Jake on a Lewis & Clark cover, which commemorates their adventure across the Western portion of the US from 1804-1806. By a wild stretch of the imagination I could picture Finn and Jake taking the roles of Lewis and Clark with Princes Bubblegum in the role of Sacagawea, as they cross uncharted territories...
Gaylord drew Finn and Jake along with Lumpy Space Princess (Peng-Peng's favorite character)...
