Kareema Corn by Joe Williams
In an effort to stave off ever mounting clutter, Tina and I exchange handmade cards instead of gifts on most holidays. This was the Valentine’s Day card I gave her this year. It’s based on a hapless chap I saw having a loud and fairly dramatic cell phone conversation in a store in Philly. With his coiffure, couture, swagger and the patois he picked up from far too many hip-hop records he tried mightily to shake off his Caucasian origins however the red hair and pasty complexion were a dead giveaway.
This was done using brush markers and colored in Photoshop.
