Floatin' Justin Collab



My friend Carlos and I have done a bunch of collaborations the last couple of years, since first working together at AME (American Marketing Enterprises), an apparel company in Manhattan. Carlos sketched this up this morning at work and sent it over - his ver. of me floating, based on my floating guys drawings..(and since the last one I did sorta looked like him - unintentional!) I inked this at home at night ... I thought his original sketch was great and had a lot of fun finishing it. Anyone who knows me will get the references!

Jess:tsk, tsk...you got it all right except for one thing...no mouses for me!! I only use a tablet and pen! using a mouse to me is like painting with a potato or something...thanks, though on the art..yeh, Carlos did a great job...of DRAWING me..you nut!

Lou:I dig your last line! Shmoke 'em if you got 'em! Glenn, do I hear a 'pass the dutchie'?

Nice work between you and Carlos-- the
only thing missing is a doobie and a Japanese
action figure..!!!!

(...and don't knock painting with a potato till
you try it--it's pretty fun!!)
