Impromptu art outing, J.C. Leyendecker!

On November 16th, I snuck out of work early to go check out the last day of the J.C. Leyendecker work on display for auction. It was great seeing his work up close, and I was surprised at the scale that he painted at. I knew the originals were shrunk down to fit in magazines, but they sure weren't nearly as big as I imagined. He fit a lot of detail work in at his relatively small scale.
