    Paying homage to the great Ed Paschke

    Edward Paschke...was
    Mr.Chicago an edgy world renown artist.
    I admired Ed's work from the time I was a teenager.
    How would you describe Ed's work?
    Urban grit with luminous hues that people loved or hated!
    A key art player in the Chicago "Hairy Who" imagist group

    My homage piece "Paschke presents the Great Schnozz!"
