Herman Melville’s great novel Moby Dick was read aloud, chapter by chapter over 24 hours by a host of folks, including the gent you see here knitting a glove, Benjamin Dionysus, at Chicago’s Newberry Library.
The very handsome cover of the novel Moby Dick with Rockwell Kent’s striking wood engraved illustrations.
Recently traveled to Hot ‘Lanta to work with # 1 sidekick, Franz Spohn. Caught Derr Franz up to his usual doings and dilemmas.
 
 
Sketchbooks used – Tomoe River Paper and a Rhodia unlined landscape format sketchbook. The usual suspects as to drawing tools- fountain pens, Faber-Castell Basic Black Leather fountain pen, Pitt Artist Brush Pens, Platinum Carbon ink, and a touch of White China Marker, aka the grease pencil.
