This gentleman was a contributor to the sadly now-defunct Dayton City Paper. I did drawings of the writers and other contributors to the arts weekly that published here for many years… It was destroyed, I hear, in a surprising embezzlement scheme. A shame, too, a great little newspaper now gone…
Another studio drawing, color as you can see. I think this was a young doctor just graduating into the big shot professional world — who loved making baskets, as did my fabulous little wife Diane in time past. I came up with this concept to show that; it’s fun to play around with the person’s interests and try to generate a novel way to illustrate the hobby or profession, whatever that may be.
