Artist's note:
It took me almost a whole day to make the writeup as brief as possible.
It’s still the longest one I’ve done but I couldn’t get it any shorter
and still tell the entire story. I think this one came out pretty well.
It took FOREVER to draw all the people on the waterfront! Although they became a bit
obscured after I darkened it on the computer. Also, the design
of the tea boxes was taken from one of the only known surviving tea chest
from the Boston tea party. Called the “Robinson half chest”, it’s on display
in the Boston Tea Party Ships & Museum in Boston. It’s kind of funny that
they didn’t print “Tea” or even put the king’s crest on them, but painted
little daisies on them instead.
