A year or so ago, I went to a show at the Scott Eder Gallery and had the fortune to get to see in person some of Gipi's art.  It's amazing!  Perhaps some day I will be wealthy and able to afford to have some of it for my very own. 

If you haven't seen a comic by this guy, check it out!  He does stuff with paper and ink (and various other mediums, I've heard watercolor, oils, and turpentine all get involved) that's really like nothing else — in the very best kind of way.
