May 27, 2008
Spent yesterday afternoon working on canyon lighting. Got a sweet little study going of a canyon precipice:



Also, I decided to re-scan the Apache Kid guarding his cave study on the office scanner since it will take the full size of the artwork:



More color and a more expansive view of the design.

Came into office today after a four-day-holiday. Went over the next Source Book cover ideas with Bob and Trish Brink and Meghan Saar. Got some good ideas. Need to send them down to Dan Harshberger now.

Proofs for the July issue just came in, and are spread out in the conference room. It's our last chance to go over the next issue before it goes on press in Liberty, Missouri.

I just proofed the issue (looks very good) and only made one change: we had on the table of contents page that a "shootout" occurred between Tom Horn and Isom Dart, when, in fact, it was a one-sided, cold-blooded killing.

"Thel" Keane, the wife of cartoonist Bil Keane, and the model for the character of Mommy in the comic strip "Family Circus," died last Friday of Alzheimer's. She was 82.
