    You drew this at the bar last nite? Looks great, but seems like it would take a long time to draw. I can only ima­gine the size of your bar tab!

    How many drinks Hugh ?
    This is a masterpiece …

    Beau­ti­ful. I love the moles­kin series. I can ima­gine get­ting lost in that type of art while crea­ting it. Does that hap­pen? Do you “zone out” when wor­king on intri­cate pie­ces like this one?

  5. Hugh MacLeod says:

    Thanks, Every­body…

    Jeremy, do I zone out? Short ans­wer: Yes.

    Though I’m not really into Buddhism at all, I try to treat it a bit like “Zen” medi­ta­tion… or something like it.

    Other­wise I’d just go mad…

    Fuc­king awe­some. I like how you still have the pas­sion to fight even though you’re now in con­trol of your own life.

    Wic­ked.

    ama­zing!

    Do you sit right at the bar? or do you sit in a booth? your own booth? A stool with your name on it?

    Curious. Feel free to link me if this has been ans­we­red before as well.

    I need to order some art soon or now now now

  8. Wow! That’s just crazy good…would like to see that pic. mag­ni­fied :)

    Must have been a boring night… poor Hugh… ;-)

    Wow. This is very Jack­son Pollock dude. Excellent!

  11. dannie says:

    oh wow! i’m sorry, but my brain has been out-dazzled to say anything par­ti­cu­larly smart! Oh wow!

  12. Someone needs to take a pic­ture of you during the crea­tion of one of these pie­ces and cap­ture “the poetry in drawing.”

    inc­re­di­ble!

    How ’bout that Stormhoek logo in the lower right cor­ner and you’ve got one hell of a spread ad.

  15. Sally says:

    Awe­so­me­sauce.

    Never lose the fight.

    Won­der if the whole idea came before you star­ted dra­wing or it struck somewhere on the way?
