Pardon me?

Here are two sketches I did last week for the NYTimes op ed page. The piece was about the number of requests for presidential pardons and the current administration's minimal effort when it comes to dealing with them. Art director Brian Rea provided the layout with the "hole" and I worked my sketches to fit.




Here is a detail of the final art, which appeared on Monday, Feb. 4. Click on the image to, like, WAY enlarge.
