Yes, wow – my Dad did illustrate the MP news – we have a few of them still, as well as some of the original art. If you are ever able to photograph it, I would love to see if it matches up with any of his original sketches. Please email me directly at [email protected]

We have tornadoes here often enough to pay attention to the sirens, esp. this spring. Last week we went down to the basement and watched the weather on TV and the laptop as a funnel was taking shape a couple of blocks from our house. Way to close for comfort . . .

Your photo/painting references are fascinating!
