This drawing was commissioned by the wife of a good friend of mine to give him as a birthday present. Mike shares my interest in flying model aircraft (slope soaring) which is the main topic of the drawing, but there are other references, such as his past (?) hobby of fishing, his habit of turning up at the flying site still dressed in his business suit (the reason for the "formal" garb of the figures), hitchhiking in the 70's (notice the "fashionable" 70's suit) , his magazine article writings and Karen's success on a "Fun Run" for charity.
