Next, there is Dr. Yamane, the hubristic museum coordinator, whose face and tie appear on the left side. His face is much more realistically drawn than the faces of the young women dashing through the museum on the left. It dominates the page, as, indeed, it should, because his arch pronouncement ominously portends the rest of the story. (He says, "Nothing can go wrong", which is a sure sign that something is going to.) I especially like Mr. Yamane's neck wrinkles and eyebrows. Seth had observed a lot of faces, and was always interested in eyebrows.
The upper picture is shot from somewhere on the ceiling, giving the reader an omniscient but non-participatory view of the proceedings, while the lower one is shot from about the eye level of the participants, taking us into the action.

Hi Mrs. Fisher,
I think what you're doing is great. Please keep it up. I was so blown away by Seth's work on "FF/Iron Man: Big in Japan" that I got in touch with him, and ended up purchasing a page. He was such a unique talent, and is greatly missed.
Best,
Rick Yankosky
PS... How do I go about getting a copy of "Bob's Amazing Life"?
Rick,
Thanks for the encouragement.
I figure that people who are looking for something about Seth will eventually find this blog and be able to go through some of his work and find new charm in it.
Please e-mail me at vicki@floweringnose.com
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Vicki
