Happy New Year!
An homage to the great J.C. Leyendecker. Homage. That’s what we call out-and-out art theft, right?
You probably know Leyendecker better as the “Arrow Shirt Man” illustrator. But before Norman Rockwell, Leyendecker was THE Saturday Evening Post cover man. He was brilliant. Much beloved of painters for his technique painting hair (among other things).
Of course, me being me, I screwed up. I intended to find the Leyendecker cover from New Years a hundred years ago, but this is actually the 1909 one. Because math. Because, consarnit, I’ll see 2018 out as innumerate as I saw it in.
Happy New Year, everyone!
p.s. watch me get done for child porn.
