Kloxboy (Oct 20, 2004) — edit

A tribute to my friend who makes a living as an urban illustrator. I work for a digital art publishing company, he works for Nike...I once thought he was a sellout but his Nike money pays for a nice apartment in Manhattan. Damned me, I'm drunk with envy...and vodka.

What does an urban illustrator do? Great bold lines in this one Clox. This gives the impression of the guy being a tagger, that Nike pays to put their name on subways and sides of buildings. Great pic..

The urban illustrator I speak of works for Nike, Nickelodeon, MTV, HBO and every fucking company I can't touch with a stick. He's about 5 years further in the game than I am so I guess I shouldn't be such a bitch about it.

We must have seen his work ,then. All big companies with lots of ads, and such.

Good linework and coloring. Too bad your friend works Nike. I know I couldn't do that, and I eat babies. Happy birthday, by the way.

Talk about envy, I'm just a bartender. Good picture mon.
