Older art. Here's GO FOR THE GOLD #4 wraparound cover art I did for our Meathaus sketchbook anthology in 2013 featuring these two kinds of creatures that exist in some kind of weird ecosystem where the big ones suction and dehydrate the little guys into powder to lay their eggs on them.

Based off the original Pamela Smith card
Depicts a robotic steed and armored warrior holding a goblet in their right hand. The horse and rider stand before a stream while some fish swim in the air behind them.
If the card is upright, it represents change and new excitements, particularly of a romantic nature. It can mean invitations, opportunities, and offers. The knight of cups is a person who is a bringer of ideas, opportunities and offers. He is constantly bored, and in constant need of stimulation, but also artistic and refined. He represents a person who is amiable, intelligent, and full of high principles, but a dreamer who can be easily persuaded or discouraged.
Reversed, the card represents unreliability and recklessness. It indicates fraud, false promises and trickery. It represents a person who has trouble discerning when and where the truth ends and lies begin.

Written 55 years ago, Schulz's heartfelt clarity cuts through the noise, even today.

Scan of a typed letter from 1970, from Peanuts creator Charles Schulz, addressed to "Joel Lipton, 622 N. Foothill Road, Beverly Hills, Calif. 90210"

It reads:

"Dear Joel:

I think it is more difficult these days to define what makes a good citizen than it has ever been before. Certainly all any of us can do is follow our own conscience and retain faith in our democracy. Sometimes it is the very people who cry out the loudest in favor of getting back to what they call "American Virtues" who lack this faith in our country.

I believe that our greatest strength lies always in the protection of our smallest minorities.

Sincerely yours,
 
Charles M. Schulz"

At bottom is an illustration of Charlie Brown and Snoopy, a kite wrapped around the dog house.
