New style of portrait drawing, as opposed to the old pencil stuff.
I wanted to share this because I wrote about it over at:

I nearly made this into a postcard last year.
I like to send little 'hello' postcards to people, you know. The art of writing by hand, et cetera.
Sending postcard is something we've done almost every year since 2006 for Design Kompany. But last year we stopped.
Part of the reason is because, well, sending postcards didn't seem to be making much of an impact at all.
But more of the reason was that this design didn't really "fit" with DK.
I mean, I like it. But Akira was iffy, and hesitant. I can understand that. After all, I made it. And so, the thinking about what's "me" and what's "DK" began to become a really meaningful question.
Where does one entity end, and the other begin?
Has anyone else had to do this kind of thing? I feel like a Siamese twin.
