I generally just show art on this page. So you must be very disturbed by these old men looking at you. In the late 70’s & early 80’s, these two morons were in the same art school. Mostly we wondered where we were getting our next beer…. Now we are wondering where our hair went. This post is to do nothing more than blow smoke up Jeff’s ass. If you are unaware who Jeff Echevarria is, stop right now and go here: @jeff_ech_artist The coolest thing about this incredible talent is, Jeff didn’t have these skills bestowed on him at birth. This is the product of good, old fashioned, hard work. To any struggling artists out there, know that anything is possible. OK, there must have been a little divine intervention to be this good. Cheers Brother. Great to see you. I wonder where we’ll get our next beer. /
