Leonard Smalls, The Lone Biker Of The Apocalypse
I love Raising Arizona. As a guy who grew up obsessed with Looney Tunes cartoons, seeing their madcap energy and elastic physics being grafted on to an endlessly quotable, lovably ramshackle comedy was a total revelation. The estimable Little White Lies magazine, whose consistently brilliant and unique visual style is a constant source of inspiration, ran a little online contest to draw your favourite Coens' character of all time to celebrate the impending UK release of Inside Llewyn Davis and for me it had to be the Wile E Coyote of the piece, the rabbit-detonating man- (and occasionally baby) hunter Leonard Smalls, as played by former boxer turned hulking cameo specialist Randall "Tex" Cobb.
Prints are available at my Etsy store
