Example text
He said I didn’t look “mean enough” to be an editorial cartoonist and I suspected he was correct. I still hadn’t worked out my political convictions and I, frankly, did not enjoy skewering politicians in the cartoons. Sometimes I felt sorry for them. Being mean 56/347 didn’t appeal to me and I had less time to draw the cartoons anyway. I lost confidence and decided to stop drawing them altogether. My political cartooning went on a long hiatus. San Antonio was very hot, and, unlike San Angelo, quite humid.
I became a fan, too. I learned a lot from Gary. He eventually moved to the Northeast and redesigned several major newspapers there. While in San Antonio I met another editorial cartoonist, John Darkow. He said I didn’t look “mean enough” to be an editorial cartoonist and I suspected he was correct. I still hadn’t worked out my political convictions and I, frankly, did not enjoy skewering politicians in the cartoons. Sometimes I felt sorry for them. Being mean 56/347 didn’t appeal to me and I had less time to draw the cartoons anyway.
I filled notebooks with doodles and sketches, some of which were very tight, that is, filled with overly fussy, rigid detail. I tried to draw as realistically as I could. I also tried oil painting, but my first attempts were disasters so I decided to stick with pencil drawings. In those “olden” days, we kids worked on art projects, learned music, and wrote stories. Yeah, we watched a lot of TV, but there were no such thing as video games. We played football, baseball, and hide-and-go-seek with other kids in the 33/347 neighborhood.
