A very energetic and dynamic style, drawing and colours typical of the 70's, a remarkable illustrator indeed. Very Spanish too. Any info about this Graphic Eye magazine? could not find anything on the web. Thank you for your wonderful blog. Paul Rooms paulrooms@libero.it
I just found your blog today while searching for Harry Clarke images. I love all of the Unica Zurn images and your keen curated eye for everything else. I am excited to read the rest of your posts.
As the author of this blog, I am going over the heads of Vincent and the mysterious "pertierra" commenter (if that *is* your real name!) and re-asserting that this IS the work of Pertierra. In fact, I recently learned that he is distantly related to Stephen Colbert.
