Drew Friedman Draws R. Crumb
"The Society of Illustrators in New York City is hosting a major R. Crumb retrospective exhibit, titled "Lines Drawn On Paper." Crumb was in attendance at the opening bash, and my favorite living portrait artist Drew Friedman also made the scene. Friedman, who hadn't run into Crumb in two decades, was so inspired by the encounter that he was compelled "to draw the now 67-year-old R. Crumb walking through a modern, glitzy Times Square—a fish out of water."

I love Drew Friedman's work, though I wouldn't have recognized Crumb looking like that...don't think I've seen him since seeing the documentary on him back in the '90s.
