RIP Mike Martin AKA Iz the Wiz...



I am so sad, but I know Mike's health wasn't the greatest for many years and he had suffered a great deal...Mike was the first person to ever ask me to paint and he treated me like a king when I did paint with him...I have never forgotten the privilege and have always thought dearly of him...I got the flu the night of the BX show at Tuff City on Friday and missed my last chance to see him. I was bummed especially because he died Wednesday of heart failure...Anyways, the world is truly better having known him...He will always be a living legend...And a king...the king of kings...RIP Iz...
