Moebius: This drawing is one of my earlier experiments with the airbrush. It is also very telling about my spiritual situation at the time. It’s not unlike a psychic self-portrait. This was a time of changes, when I decided to completely change my life-style. I quit smoking, stopped drinking, etc.
At the time, I didn’t think about it, but today, I see quite clearly a relationship between those weird creatures at the bottom of the picture that are trying to attack the central character and all the bad habits I was trying to break.
