Reminds me of Mr Thomas my history teacher from 1968. First rate.

Very good Lewis.

Excellent work Lew , definitely one that we all recognise. I think it’s works better for being black and white.

Repurposed to great effect, art, wit and a smile.

Your dip pen work is brilliant Lewis and I agree with Paul, all the better for being black and white.

Thank you all for your great response to this drawing.

Just reminds me in looks of my history teacher - very knowledgable about history but awful as a teacher putting it across to his pupils.

Brilliant Lewis, how you produce drawings like this with a dip pen amazes me.

I am circumspect about this one...

Wonderful action.

He looks just like the typical history teacher Lewis, another cracker!

But the question is was he gay? All those years away from his wife, with just his seamen. He was rather fond of his nephew and wrote a will in his favour, but did not sign it. So his second wife inherited. He had no children of his own. The globe has definitely not been the same since! Keep um coming Lew!

About the Artist

Lewis Cooper

Self taught. Love drawing. Like to make pictures up, without using reference pics, often in cartoon style. I do other pictures where I do use reference. I'm knocking on a bit, born in 1940 in Greenwich, London. Retired, and loving it.
