En Derin

Oh man i don’t know what inspired me to become an artist as much as i was just a creative kid…things seemed so much bigger and more fantastic…dinosaurs and Hulk hogan, are you kidding me? what kid didn’t just automatically know that those were the best things in life? UKn kid anyways…which i suppose points to our penchant for violence…You learn early…young UKn training…study aggressive behavior and dominate that ass…for me though I suppose I knew I wanted art to be a job when I couldn’t tolerate my boss’s weird trips….plus i get to smoke pot and listen to Black Sabbath….

Harrowing, engaging, and undeterred

I guess I would have gone to an art school…too broke..white trash witches aint got no money…we learn the old ways and pass em/ down to the youngin’s…make sure they know how to get by with perseverence and will power…don’t need no schoolin’ to understand the darkness of the universe..you just gotta open them eyes…it’s all around you.

Rosaleen Norton, Rory Hayes, every artist in the extreme canvas book ( hand painted movie posters from Ghana), Mars-1, Richard Corben, Alex Pardee, Mike Mignola, Barry McGee, Matt Fox, Irving Norman…Bosch…There’s alot more but those are some of the ones I really like…Frazetta, Wrightson…etc.

I have a solo show at white walls in august…a bunch of littler shows until then…a lurker toy comin out next month…some prints in a week..hopefully a book this year…writing new music i love…goin to Japan in November i think…but the show in August is definitely what I am focused on…hopefully i will have a new cartoon done for the show…some sculptures and halloween mask replicas in my own style…also a t shirt line in the next couple months…snowboards for capita…just finished the designs for the new season of decks and everything for blood wizard…trying to practice my shredsmanship on my guitar…junk like that
