Lesson Learned

Well, I might have missed the boat on Marcel Dzama, but I like to think that I've since learned my lesson, and have bought some illustrations done by Rob Ullman, a local illustrator who does stuff for the City Paper, Richmond Magazine, and a ton of other places.

My sweetie bought me a nice pin-up from Ullman's website for my birthday, and when my bonus was deposited into my bank account, I decided to add another a piece that is DNSFW to my collection.

Like Pia Guerra,, Ullman has a nice, clean style that is reminiscent of earlier comic book artists like Dan DeCarlo or Carmine Infanito. Not a lot of artists emulate that sort of look, but when they do - as Ullman does - it stands out on the page like nothing else out there.
