Cayce like many of his generation was named for and appreciates the association with the famous Edgar of the same name. Unlike Cayce Pollard the fictional main character of William Gibson’s ‘Pattern Recognition’ who detests the association.
The Link today goes to the superb annotated edition of Pattern Recognition created by Joe Clark.
Disclaimer: I in no way agree with Mr.Clark’s assessment of ‘Spook Country’ as being the same book. Certainly there are similarities, however it is a fine work in its own right. I suspect due to the mammoth task Mr. Clark undertook that by completion he was simply thouroughly sick of the work. A very successful communal effort was undertaken to annotate Spook Country, I shall provide link to it at another time.

Pen and paint on paper, 2 hours.
Next time I will colour in Photoshop like a sensible person.
I really feel for those golden age of Disney animators.
I have been told to stop being so self critical of my work,
so lets just say that i did not almost restart the entire picture because of the bloody whiskers.
I could fix it in Photoshop
but that would be cheating.
