Description
Vaughn Bodé ( [link] ) is a true legend. One of the great few who kick started underground comix. Much of graffiti art itself also comes from the work of Vaughn Bodé. One of my favorites (of course) so I decided to draw Cheech Wizard and his dead friend. I miss his art but lucky for us that his son ( [link] ) draws in a very similar style.
Watercolor over markers.

A good place to learn. That link you have to the Bode website is just great, usually the links I find here just lead to strange and confusing places.

Oh yeah, Bode' kicks! I stolen err-erm- I mean, I "borrowed" some drawing techniques (mainly coloring) from both him and his son.

Vaughn was a genius. They say he died...well...the same way the lead singer from INXS did.

Yep. I like how his son put it:
"Vaughn Bode died on July 18,1975 in San Francisco in a mystic experiment gone wrong."

He was the Ziggy Stardust of the underground. I know his son Mark.

It was purchased on the day I met him. We were sitting next to each other at a comic convention.
