the illo is just great man - i love how you used the texture (and that's pencil shading, right?). and the colors are a great choice - really bold and brave. definitely one of your strongest yet.

the photos are killer too - i didn't know you were in philly. and i didn't know they had so much great street art. darren and i were just in charleston, sc and tho there wasn't really any great graffitti art, there were some old school barber shops with paintings on the sides of the buildings that were priceless. of course, i didn't bring my camera.

i forgot to mention how the guy in red (in the illo) looks like a giraffe eating from a tree! great face.

Thanks. Yeah, that is pencil shading, I've been messing with that and other kinds of textures lately.

Long time no speak, I heard Charleston was fun. talk to you soon. Peace!

Oh, and imaginary blogger: I totally forgot to put that pic up, another post perhaps.
