Our Artist

The team portraits and other illustrations that appear on our web site were created by Kevin Sprouls, the artist who introduced the hallmark portrait style to the Wall Street Journal in 1979. Kevin’s work has always felt fresh and interesting to us as well as timeless, as it has to many others. Through its association with the Wall Street Journal, Kevin’s work has come to evoke ideas of fiscal probity and trust. Beyond that, its meticulous style conveys a sense of patience, craft and meticulous execution—qualities that resonate with our understanding of the American Dream. In a world of imitations and substitutions, Kevin’s work is, unmistakably, the real thing.
