The technical dexterity of some of the draw­ings by Stephen Sheldon reflects the ar­tist’s commercial experience. The bull­fight series, in particular, has a kind of drama with a touch of humor that could lend itself to either animation or, be­cause of Sheldon’s interest in detail, to costume design for the theater. Outside of a certain decorative charm, they add little to the field of graphics, however colorful they are momentarily.
