Mel Kadel (Juxtapoz #90) is one rad lady. Not only can she draw like no one we’ve seen, but she has pretty cool friends. “Birthdays are just regular days that you try to force out a bunch of fun,” write Mel on her Juxtapoz blog. “Luckily, Michael Sieben (Juxtapoz cover #81) and Nathan Green (from Austin, TX) happened to come into town for an art show they were a part of, and stayed with us for the week.”
