Springfield’s resident editorial cartoonist is a sweetheart
After a depressing week last week with the news of Simpson, KAL and Ramirez, it’s nice to read a very lengthy feature on a Chris Britt. It’s worth the read.
The brush Chris Britt uses to draw editorial cartoons is so fancy, it can’t be bought in Springfield. It’s a Winsor & Newton Series 7, and the bristles come from the soft tail hair of the kolinsky sable. Britt buys one or two of these brushes a year from an art-supply house for $26 apiece.
