Thanks to Gina Kovarsky, I’m pleased to post three of her father’s drawings that surfaced during the ongoing cataloging of Kovarsky’s extensive body of work. I profiled the master cartoonist on the New Yorker‘s website several years ago (the link takes you to Bob Mankoff’s blog. Scroll down a bit to get to my entry on Mr. Kovarsky).
Gina reports that her father continues, in his 96th year, to pursue his art. His work first appeared in The New Yorker in March of 1947.
The drawings, from top to bottom: “Elusive Beauty” “Geometric Painting” and “Two Houses”
He’s just so good. That first drawing, “Elusive Beauty,” is an especially lively—and funny—composition.
