Walter Minus

Is this clear line drawing? No! Is it Pop Art? No! Comics? No, it’s Walter Minus! Within the world of illustration, Walter Minus is a superhero flying high above fashions and tendencies, not unlike William Sheller in the musical arts. In the wake of magazines Elle, Cosmopolitan, The New Yorker and The New York Magazine, it is now the turn of art galleries to tussle for his pin-ups. Incapable of ‘Just shut up and look pretty.’, his cheeky gals pride themselves on mischievous, caustic, witty comments. Insufferable Angelica, Ginger, Mirna, Julia, Albina, I love you !
