Thanks for the support ... you really nailed what I was going for when you said vintage, loose, Beatnik feel; totally where my head was at when I conceived it. I had been looking at some old Leeteg stuff and I was thinking of the soft smoky works of the early 20th century painters ... a bit of the 30's Art Deco vibe in there for me also though it is more vibe than anything you can physically see. I had half a mind it might have hung on Raymond Chandlers living room wall. As for seeing more ... I hope to be able to do just that - I'm working on some new sketches as we speak. :) [ Edited by: Tikirocker 2007-09-27 18:42 ]
