On part 2 of this week's episode, we talk with Artist/writer, John Donohue. John was a writer and editor at the New Yorker and tried his hand at cartooning for a while and had five of his cartoons published in it. He decided to take a new direction in his career and started doing on-the-spot ink drawings of restaurants. He's drawn restaurants from all over the world, including London, Paris, New York City, Chicago, Philadelphia and many more. He's had three books published of his drawings from Paris, London and New York City.
John does sell limited edition prints of his drawings, so if you have a favorite restaurant or one that brings back special memories, check out his website and see if he has it. He also takes requests!
