then : now :: olaf and edgar

I know i could've paired Olaf Hajek with a number of other past artists that had a bit more of the crazy in them...but these two pieces just felt right together....the mass grouping of flowers and even their obvious differences allow them to sit next to each other and be quite interesting. 

on a side note...Olaf is one of my fave illustrators and a major influence on my own work...he's kinda a rock star in the field and any illustrator out there should know who he is.
