Lookalike illustration accompanying an article in the Tallahassee Democrat: "At work and at home, make yourself essential." Illustrator is Troy Oxford. Pointed out in a Comics Journal Message Board thread, which will likely go dead.
From the thread:
"But do art directors these days say, "Give me a Chris Ware-type illustration?"
"Yes. It's happened to me twice. They think they've "discovered" Ware and that they're hip to a super secret, old-timey comics art style and they'll be on the cutting edge by swiping it. In both cases, I turned in work that looked nothing like Ware and never got a call from that AD again."
