The Mysterious Psychedelic Comic Art Of Frank Mell

Here is a glimpse into the personal sketch book of underground psychedelic comic artist Frank Mell. His incredible work is similar to legendary R. Crumb Comics, but much less known. These photographs are from the personal archives of Frank and have never been seen by the public. Franks younger brother Ed Mell, a western landscape painter, is much more known and has paintings in multiple high end private collections as well as museums. This glimpse of Franks' lost sketch book comics is in honor of a man that was the real deal, and was Ed's mentor. It is an honor to hold a few of the original drawings and airbrush paintings. These few pieces I hold were bought at auction in Phoenix, Arizona in 2011 and were drawn during his times in Brooklyn & Phoenix.
