| My son was a professional cartoonist. He was a political cartoonist for The Toronto Sun Newspaper and also a magazine illustrator where he created many characters.
His posters hang in a chain of restaurants across the city. He had a strong sense of humour that showed in his work. I want to share some of that work with you.
I painted this painting in 1993 shortly after he died. Richie was 32. |
