Philippe Caza's early psychedelic art

50 Watts has a gallery of Philippe Caza's early work. Caza writes, "I was a great fan of Moscoso, Crumb, Griffin, and some other US underground comix that I could find at one bookseller in Paris."

I think his work is also reminiscent of Heinz Edelmann, the Yellow Submarine artist, and Peter Max.

Caza posts his recent (and excellent) work on his blog (which is in French).

This is wonderful! His art looks more like stuff from Electric Company than underground comix!
