Enjoyed this! I once met a gent in Waitrose who collected discarded shopping lists from the bottom of trolleys and baskets. He liked what they inadvertently revealed about people. I wish I'd probed a bit more!

Small Dog Found and Lost Needs Medication

"Lost Needs Medication" was the name of Don's exhibition - he used the illustration from the "Small Dog Found" poster to advertise it. That's the flyer for his exhibition that he is holding in that second pic!

ok, thanks for the clarification! otherwise it kinda just looked like he was illustrating posters himself.
