If you don't know David Choe or his work...first off he's an amazing graffiti artist, he's a great fine artist, he's one of the most driven and interesting people I've ever met....he's a HUGE influence on me...even though we draw nothing alike....or maybe not.

we'll see....

anyway he's been down to the studio a few times...I might have found this pic online I can't even remember...but they are standing in front of my old desk...you can see some of my inspiration on the walls (this pic was from about 7 years back)....Michael Golden, some Leyendecker, Drew Struzan, Mignola, Travis, Jim Lee (it's a batman drawing kinda right in the middle top area...was for my birthday)....Frank Miller, Otomo...you know the GOOD shit!

anyway....I love David Choe so as he would say...fuck it I wanted to post this pic..it's not art, does have a little to do with wildstorm though.

ah memories.

come to think of it, I took this pic for David.

yeah no shit right....when I first met David he wasn't as HUGE as he is right now/ My guess is it was 2001? We went to a lunch with Jim Lee ('sushi on the rock' in La Jolla) which was GREAT but the conversation was EVEN better....I could listen to his adventures for hours.)...but beyond that, I just loved him as a person immediately because he's a real artist as I think I am.....I don't mean that in an elitist way but some people function better as a simple thing...his energy and just like freedom blew me away....I am that guy...but a little more timid than David is/

I was serious when I said, he is a gigantic influence on me, although at the moment our work (at face value) is nothing alike.

He's in there though...I wouldn't have had the courage to do the black drawings I don't think without knowing him and his "fuck it, let the chips fall where they may" attitude. I do feel that way to some degree.

:)

thanks for the post~!

Wonderful picture! But... if you're on the left, how come your profile says that you're a "male?" :(
