Craig: Wow. I’m always slightly embarrased to have this on the front page.

J.D.: But I think it’s really necessary to tell the story, in that — the place is burning around him and he doesn’t care. He’s more concerned about looking respectable again.

Craig: Right. As my friend Ryan put it, he’s centering himself.

J.D.: Actually, we based this on another friend of ours who actually looks like that.

Craig: I remember that. We bribed him with Middle Eastern food and then invited him back to the house for a photo shoot. He wasn’t naked though.

J.D.: And I actually own that knife that he was posing with. It took forever to put all the gleam on the tile wall behind him.

Craig: I think it’s a very peaceful shot.

J.D.: Despite the flames coming in through the door. I never painted realistic looking flames before. It was interesting. And harder than I thought it would be.

Craig: But I mean that he’s found a peaceful place within all the maelstrom around him.

J.D.: Must tell you something about where he’s been.

Craig: Heh. Yes. But we’ll leave it at that for now. 🙂
