I think I must have used this strip, back when it appeared in the newspaper, as the source of an image for a little homemade artifact. I had read (probably in Martin Gardner's "Mathematical Games" column in Scientific American) about an old-style folded-paper puzzle called in French "Cherchez la Femme," which when unfolded correctly led to a picture of a woman -- but of course in my version it led to a picture of Churchy, and I distinctly remember he was saying "A outrage!" I think I copied it by tracing over its lines with carbon paper underneath.
My name is Thom Buchanan.
I'm an artist and photographer.
People are my favorite subjects to portray in art and photos. My wife (and studio partner) has called that my 'people skills', as I've been passionately creating portrait studies for many years.
I refer to myself as a pictorialist, a combination of image-making and journalist. Images are my life.
