Description I was working on something else in illustrator and doodled this in the corner.

Ambition and talent are a delicate balance.

I really like the concept, I wish I had the technical talent to execute it better.

Would work really great as a stencil! I like the simplicity and, of course the concept. I lack a little ambition. then again I lack the talent also! lol

(just realized this IS in the stencil category) lol

i love the simplicity. i think it leaves room for viewers to build imagination on this piece. made me wonder what this fella was thinking or what kind of expression he might have on his face. the possibilities are endless! but thats whats great about this image. great work, sir, well done. for some pieces, simplicity is key :]

Lovely. I can easily imagine this on a poster... or a print in my room.

Looks really cool Tom. I should say that you don't need anything else in there... Looking really urban. Like Obey and all that stuff. Simple and eye cathing...

That means a lot coming from a super-talented designer fellow such as yourself, sir.

Thanks.

I like the style....

Simplistic is always better than complex

If you add some 80s colors, I'll buy it as a print.
