The Letter - Jonathan Pogorelskin

Mixed media using abstract expressionist elements as well as realistic depiction. I’ve been making art, mostly cartoons, since I was in the 7th. Grade. I started out copying the art I enjoyed by reading “Car-Toons” magazine, “Drag Cartoons”, and the stuff being put out by Ed ”Big Daddy” Roth in the hot-rod magazines of the day. “Rat Fink” was a favorite, and I could copy it faithfully which gave me a status with the greaser crowd, and offered me protection. At 4', and change I needed it!
