. . .The subject cried for a version of the Anatomy lesson by Rembrandt. As the page design forces me to render the illustration in a vertical format, I wondered how to modify the original. Fortunately, I found this brilliant version by the great Edward Sorel for reference:

Hope you'll like it even thought you don't know this people.

Bravo! Very clever way to illustrate your idea.

I'd like to recommend this interview with Edward Sorel about the nuances of the job of politics illustration: http://www.theatlantic.com/past/docs...h/sorelint.htm

Now, to keep the pace with the news, here are three stooges picked up among many: Moshe Katsav (former president of Israel), Clinton and Strauss-Kahn.

LOL Spectacular! This vignette has continuous additions I guess. I like Your update with Dominant Stress-Can (ops, I mean Dominique Strauss-Kahn), for friends Can-Can or C(H)an-nibal ....
Obviously this is only a secondary scene in a hall large huge Bacchanal fresco, where, we have no doubt, the central part would present our Prime Minister who cannot but play the divine role of Dionysus/ Bacchus in person surrounded by a crowd of drunk or ecstatically willing women, girls and nymphae.

That was a cool article you linked to, Bob. It does speak of the nature of the job. I bet the book will be interesting. It stung when he mentions how the political cartoon market is shrinking. Commercial Art has been like the Titanic in slow motion. . . You should be proud that you're working what with syndication and all.

Nice cartoon you did here. Rather old school Roman excess. And the band played on. . .

Bob Row,
Could it be that imbibing in the fermenting grapes in this arbor might be
responsible for the antics of these three recognizable pickin' and grinnin'
centaurs? If so ... THEY'RE CUT OFF!!! Great art work, great
charicatures!

Fantastic work Bob

[Simoniak]

Very nice cartoons. I really like. Great Job!

[ScottF]

Always a joy (and a bit of a giggle) seeing your work, Bob!

Hi, people! I've been absent for so long I can't believe! But, as I stumbled for a thread by Henri Stahl on the beauties of the AR's felt pen I felt compeled to add my two cents to the praise of my favorite tool. I added a screen (blend=multiply) found in DeviantArt for a touch of old chinese print ambient.
