I enjoy working with creative people, especially those who share the same interests but approach these interests from different perspectives. It's always a revelation to hear them talk about things that matter to them, their passion for art, their highs and lows. In honor of these co-workers and fellow practitioners, I'm starting a series of quick peeks of their work. From the drawing table of writer/illustrator Erik Katukomal, comes "Basagtuka". In colloquial Filipino, the term basag-ulo is an idiom literally meaning "head basher" and is usually referred to one who frequently indulges in violence. Erik rehashes the idiom using "tuka" or "beak" in English and delivers a POV story about fighting cocks. The story is in Filipino and has great line work. Erik Katukomal's BASAGTUKA at Pilosopotassium . Enjoy!
