Last week’s Week.

Good characters to paint this time. I couldn’t go crazy on the caricatures of course, but was still doing some exaggeration. As it turned out, this was a beast to do. As you can see through the approval process things seemed to go smoothly until I turned in the final somewhere around five in the morning. I got a call from the editor asking for some changes as delicately as possible. My depiction of surgery was about to get some surgery.
