Take it on Faith - art from 1999

Richard did this piece for E.J. Dionne Jr.'s Chattering Class column for the Washington Post Magazine on June 20, 1999. That's the Washington National Cathedral in the drawing.

I don't recall ever seeing the original in his files.

More "lost" Richard Thompson art

Last week saw two people reach out to me with "lost" art by Richard.

From Richard's old friend Brian Nicklas:

O - M - G !!!  I found I had two more [pieces of original art]. And one I even have the page out of WaPo [aka Washington Post] that it was done for. Yippee!

And from Anita Finkelstein comes an 11x14" page of the Ugly Truck of 1993 from the 1993 Ameriprint calendar. Bono Mitchell says this was originally done for one of the Bonotom client magazines.

If you're interested in purchasing one of the 1993 calendars in mint condition, which also has pieces by 11 other artists, contact Chris Sparks via Team Cul de Sac.
