Magazine Illustration
Sickles asked the newspaper syndicate for a salary raise in 1936, and when he was turned down, he quit, becoming a successful commercial illustrator. He also ghosted the daily strip The Adventures of Patsy, but otherwise the rest of his career was devoted to magazine illustration. For Life, he illustrated the original publications of The Old Man and the Sea and The Bridges at Toko-Ri.

“What is character but the determination of incident? What is incident but the illustration of character?”
