Edgar Allan Poe in McCleary

My brother, Bryan Willis, wrote a great one-man play centered on Edgar Allan Poe. The work was first presented to the world right here in little old McCleary in 1998. The play has continued to make the rounds to this day.

Although caricature is not really my strength as a cartoonist, how can one resist making a try at drawing a face like Poe's? This drawing was recently used again as part of our local library's Poe art show.

If you look at the "patron bricks" on the walkway in front of the public library in McCleary, Washington, you'll find this name among the donors. It's in front the park bench, a place where you can sit and observe the parade of characters in this eccentric little town.
