whatever i want...

my brother recently asked me how i decide what type of stuff i put up on my blog. Was it purely an art blog or was it about your life in general, he asked.  I told him there was no rhyme or reason, and that I put up 'whatever I want.'
With that in mind, check out this photo from 1951 of aspiring comic book artist Martin Landau.

  8. I always find the great items a year later. This is an amazing rare shot, as rare as finding one of Landau's illustrations posted online. He does still draw, in fact he did so in the 2010 film 'Lovely Still'
    If anyone sees this (after a year or so) I have images of his work, a very amazing style.
