John Henry Müller & Dave Nelson




So one of the things I've been wanting to do for a while is quick illustrations of our guests on The Reflex Blue Show. I'd say 60% of this was completed during editing of the show, in between clicks and snips, then taken to town with a $1 watercolor set. I haven't used watercolors since college, but I've always loved the results you get when you go quickly. So while it's essentially a sloppy mess, it's a step back into my old shoes. Hope you like it.

As for the show we recorded with these two fine fellows, click here to listen. Or visit the links on the right-hand side of the page to check these guys' sites out.

from Nate Voss to you.
