He is described as a modern day knight gallant living an underground kind of life. Physically he is a heavy guy with red hair.
Nuevamente fui contactada por el escritor Francis Hamit para diseñar la tapa de una historia corta en la serie de historias sobre el personaje Gordon Grant. El autor describe este personaje como un tipo que había sido actor infantil, había perdido todo su dinero, y mientras trataba de desarrollar su carrera como un actor adulto trabajaba como detective privado.

The author especified that the illustration had to be of a couple of detectives doing surveillance work on a latin mercado during the night. The viewpoint was from the parking lot.
I sent him two sketches for the cover featuring different perspectives from the car.

El bosquejo final y aprobado para la tapa.
The famous "Nighthawks" painting by Edward Hopper. I remembered this painting and in a way I wanted to incorporate it into the cover. I noticed the sidewalk across the street from the cafe, and decided it was the perfect place for the newstand. I drew the newstand in that same place but as I imagined it would look today.
La famosa pintura "Nighthawks" del pintor Edward Hopper. Me acorde de este cuadro y de alguna forma quería incorporarla a la pintura. Me fije en la vereda de enfrente del café y decidí colocar el quiosco en ese lugar pero como me imaginé que se vería en tiempos actuales.
