BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU WISH FOR

Description

I’m a huge fan of the artist Barry Windsor-Smith. As a comic book artist and illustrator his work is unmatched and his work on the Conan the Barbarian comic in the 70’s set the bar for every graphic artist and cartoonist who came after him. And really, what am I, but a cartoonist writ large? Anyway, as a kid, I owned a copy of The Studio, of book of collected artwork by Windsor-Smith and artists Michael Kaluta and Jeffrey Catherine Jones. I poured over those pages for hours as if they were holy scripture, committing every line to memory. In those pages I first discovered Windsor-Smith’s beautiful full color drawing of Pandora and her uhfortunate decision to open that damned box and release evil on the world. From the moment I saw it, I wanted to draw it and finally almost fifty years later, I gave it a try. The results I leave for you to judge. Before you go, notice the framed picture in the upper left corner of the wall behind Pandora and you’ll see a thumbnail view of a portion of “You Belong in the City.” Drawing created in 2021.
