Title: Game, Set, Friendship
Client: Tennis Magazine
Description: This illustration for Tennis Magazine's "The Complete Player" column continues the story of the author of this piece which I illustrated for them back in August of 2005. Recalling the tennis-filled days of his youth, the author describes how he ultimately lost a cherished friendship, thanks to his hubris and his gossiping about winning a friendly practice match. This of course is totally based on Norman Rockwell's classic "Gossips" Saturday Evening Post cover from 1948. Apologies to Mr. Rockwell!
