....a rather minimalist approach compared to the piece that inspired it. Actually, to form a new art term, a MINI approach (or "Mini Me" ?). It is as if the characters shrivelled like shrunken heads. I would like to compare this to a badly mixed Tahitian Rum Punch, with too much grapefruit and lime: It sucks.

Are any of you kids aware that about a year and a half ago, an animation magazine who's name escapes me published a complete "How to paint like SHAG" article by Josh Agle, with step by step photos of one painting, explaining compositional tricks and color schemes and the like (I kick myself for not having gotten an issue).
I wonder if he ever thought that stuff would show up on e-bay.
..come to think of it, maybe he secretly COLLECTS the stuff, to have a funny "paint by numbers" art show years down the line. I'm gonna propose that to him.
