The subway line to New York Fine Art Stardom is greased with the blood and sweat of thousands of artist Coulda Beens, Flash in the Pans, Flavor of the Months, Has Beens, and Never Wases. Is it possible for an artist at the top of the New York Commercial Illustration World to make a successful track change to the high brow New York Fine Art Scene? Seems impossible but Andy Warhol did it. He was 32. I just turned 32. It's all been building up to this. The big question is, "Can lightning strike twice?"

It took me half of my short life to hone my voice, drawing thousands of illustrations for hundreds of magazines, printed in 16 languages and 14 countries. Over the next few years I will be chronicling my journey out from under the glossy pages of the Maxim's, and Rolling Stone's, and onto the canvas lined world of galleries, high art glamour, and parlor walls of elite sophisticates. What does it take, and do I have the intestinal fortitude? You will learn as I do.

My name is Cojo. I am an Art Juggernaut. Watch the closing doors please, next stop. . .nobody knows. These are The Straphanger Memoirs.
