Good friend Tom Price, knowing my interest in all things to do with Classic International 14's, sent along one of his charcoal illustrations of Tom sailing his International 14 over in England, circa probably early 1980's. Although Tom doesn't make a living as a professional artist, his work has illustrated Stuart Walker's books and one of his drawings hangs in my living room.
Tom currently is a top competitor in the Star and 210 fleets as well as a crack helmsman on several larger keelboats on the Chesapeake Bay.
From Tom's email;

One of my great regrets was putting the particiaption drawing Tom did for the 1981 Worlds Team racing in the closet on the plane home from the regatta...and when I went to retreive it at SFo...stolen!
Lovely pen and ink of a classic 14...bastards.
