Months ago when I first got my blog up and running I discovered this amazing illustrator on BEAUTIFUL/DECAY and was really inspired by his work. Great technique surged by blazing color, while decidedly staying in a very comic book sort of area.
The aesthetic is obviously retro, but the sense of humor is clearly contemporary, and while most people would say it's nostalgic, it's very clearly a voice of today. Even if the work follows in the footsteps of artists like Raymond Pettibon or Pushead; using youthful energy to drive the image.
