My artistic abilities are limited to stick people and even they aren’t what you could call brilliant (Is it a dumbell…no, no, it’s a tree, right?… the state of Rhode Island?..). I guess that’s why I’m completely blown away by illustrators, cartoonists, and artists of all strokes of life.
One of our own, Kentucky native Britt Spencer is featured heavily in the September/October issue of the wonderful magazine The Saturday Evening Post. Britt has the cover as well as a number of remarkable illustrations inside the magazine. I’m a total history buff, so I would love to get my hands on these illustrations and frame them – they’re truly amazing. Click HERE to see Britt Spencer’s work in this issue.
Britt Spencer was born and raised in the foothills of Eastern Kentucky’s Appalachian mountains. When he saw his first drawing, he knew he’d seen his future: “It was as if my reality as I knew it had imploded and I was left with the daunting responsibility to rebuild.” And so he did.
