My friend Patrick Owsley alerted me that Dick Locher, one of our very favorite artists, passed away at 88! Dick and I had a long chat about his Ronald McDonald painting series from 1970, after I picked one up. Kroc hired him, after trying to get Norman Rockwell. Locher exceeded expectations, just as he did with Dick Tracy! I look at his Ronald painting every day. Rest in peace. #dicklocher #chicagotribune #naperville #dicktracy #ronaldmcdonald #raykroc
