His line was spontaneous and just different than anyone else's. He seemed like he would've been working on pulp fiction illustrations or advertising as well. HIs style was sophisticated and maybe a little less cartoony than the usual comic artist. Great illustrator.nutsilica.blogspot.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08816159328601948660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-983171239671909762.post-58502300652386607692019-05-30T22:07:36.495-05:002019-05-30T22:07:36.495-05:00I like Kinstler's work in all the main phases ...I like Kinstler's work in all the main phases of his wide-ranging career. But I think I like the black and white pulp illustrations the best. The man was an incredibly suave and interesting painter, but I really, really like the way he drew.<br /><br />Also I spent some portion of my life mixing him up with the also excellent pulp illustrator Mort Künstler. Even though god knows the men in question did everything they possibly could to distinguish themselves from one another.Mr. Cavinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01634994342702518448noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-983171239671909762.post-64272541068447016352019-05-30T20:12:22.021-05:002019-05-30T20:12:22.021-05:00A great comic artist (loved his work for Avon) and...A great comic artist (loved his work for Avon) and a superb portrait artist.

He did some real fine work. Very busy with the shading and cross-hatching without clouding up the work. Great stuff!Brian Barneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15737535617796413548noreply@blogger.com
