WOW!!

I don't always have the time to read all of the comments posted on this blog, particularly when they appear much later than the original post date. 
In early 2016 I published a Dallas newspaper article here. It featured Milt Kahl talking about his work on Robin Hood. It also included photos of Milt drawing Robin and Little John. 
At that time I sort of wondered where these beautiful sketches might have ended up. 
Wouldn't you know in November of that year Greg Barton added a comment with the link to the framed drawings he now owns. 
I want to thank Greg (years later) for sharing his treasures. I am glad that you used UV/filter glass in your framing because these felt pen/marker drawings would fade dramatically under normal glass.
Look at Milt's lines, they seem to dance on paper as he defines shapes, volume and texture.
Pure joy.

Discovering these sketches today during difficult times everywhere makes me very, very happy!!








Here are links to Milt's visit to Dallas in 1973:
