Description:

Many of Wilcox's classmates left after their second year at the Cleveland School of Art, believing they had gained enough skill to break in to the field of illustration. Most of them began attending the school with the intention of becoming illustrators or cartoonists. Though Wilcox's father encouraged his artistic path in hopes of a lucrative cartoonist career, it does not seem that this was ever Wilcox's goal. In fact, when his classmates left to pursue illustration, Wilcox considered their decision to be rash, for he was only beginning to pierce the skin of all artistic professional opportunities available.
