BeCool

In my estimation, humble as it may be, the golden age of cool passed us by long ago.  Older generations had and continue to have (just watch how they carry themselves) a better understanding of how to just be cool.  And when it comes to basketball, the chasm between the cool of the present and the cool of the past could not be any more plain.  Sky hooks, finger rolls, afros, knee-high socks... heck, even the nerds were cooler back in the day.  Think Kurt Rambis.

When I draw basketball scenes, they tend to reflect my appreciation for the old school (re: cool) aesthetic of yesteryear.  Here's a terrible photograph of a piece I've been picking at between other projects:

Here's an even worse photo:

I can't promise it'll be done anytime soon, but I'll be sure and post it when it's finished.

Be cool (folks).
