Apparently, Frank needed a mugshot—and one angle just wasn’t enough. This illustration shows Frank’s skull, as if he’s posing for a very thorough police lineup. Somehow, even after all that, he still hasn’t lost his smile. The piece was inspired by a medieval altar cross I saw on display at the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art, along with my favorite model, Frank, who is always happy to pose.
