“The experienced illustrator subscribes to the principle of the application of the seat of the pants to the seat of the chair. Should inspiration whisk down your chimney, be at your table. The first ten thousand drawings are the hardest. Put another way, you have ten thousand bad drawings within and should expel them as quickly as possible.” -Wallace Tripp

The latter illustration is very familiar. Do you know which book that is from?

No, sir, I don’t know. His books are not easy to come by. I am always looking at used-books stores. If you find out, let me know.
