Ronald Searle Profiled on Illustration Art

Friday, April 4th, 2008

Click through to see the fantastic drawing David Apatoff describes below (David's prose ain't so bad either...).

ONE LOVELY DRAWING, part 18:

There are millions of drawings out there with a claim on our attention, but that doesn't mean we can't pause for a moment over one lovely example.

When you stand in a meadow full of daffodils, your eye may settle by chance upon just one. Not the Best flower, not the worst, but by looking at it and smelling it up close you learn something about every other flower in the meadow.

Today's flower is from the great Ronald Searle. Here he does what he does best-- dips his pen in his DNA and comes up with a brilliant, caustic, insightful drawing.
