I was on the school high school. Yeah, 95 00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:01,799 Speaker 1: I was on the school magazine. And um, back before 96 00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:04,400 Speaker 1: they had computers doing everything, you had to run everything 97 00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:06,560 Speaker 1: through a wax machine and lay it out on blueboard. 98 00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:09,000 Speaker 1: And so I used all the equipment at the high 99 00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:12,440 Speaker 1: school to lay out my first comic. And then I 100 00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:14,960 Speaker 1: would have my friends walked down the hallway just holding 101 00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:17,520 Speaker 1: the book up and people would just be like, what's that. 102 00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:21,720 Speaker 1: It's Dietrich's new comics.

This one was about 105 00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:34,240 Speaker 1: a like a fifteen year old kid running around New 106 00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:37,400 Speaker 1: York and he had an oozy and he was chasing 107 00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:42,240 Speaker 1: a cannibal. Cannibal. Yeah yeah. It was called Tribal Scream. 108 00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:46,760 Speaker 1: It was like, um ah yeah, like just a straight 109 00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:51,200 Speaker 1: up South African tribal like cannibal, like if you dropped 110 00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:52,480 Speaker 1: him in the middle of New York City and he 111 00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:55,719 Speaker 1: went on a killing spree. And it's funny you say 112 00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:58,920 Speaker 1: this because I literally was watching Jimmy Kimmel the other night, 113 00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:00,640 Speaker 1: and I don't know if you've seen the but he, 114 00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:02,960 Speaker 1: as a youngster, drew a comic book as well, when 115 00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:07,000 Speaker 1: he was approximately about maybe your age, I'd say, and uh, 116 00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:08,599 Speaker 1: they made a movie out of it, and it was 117 00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:10,480 Speaker 1: the big director that made it and had all A 118 00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:13,240 Speaker 1: list actors in it, right, And it was a joke, 119 00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:15,720 Speaker 1: Like I could see them doing that for you one day, 120 00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:17,560 Speaker 1: you know what I mean? As you just described that 121 00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:20,960 Speaker 1: as crazy and silly, as that sounds so was his, 122 00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:23,200 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. And Jimmy Kimmels was out 123 00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:25,080 Speaker 1: there to where the characters are making fun of it, 124 00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:27,919 Speaker 1: going who made this like some dumb kid named Jamie? 125 00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:30,120 Speaker 1: Like they just ripped them as well doing it. But 126 00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:33,159 Speaker 1: I can totally see something like this being done because 127 00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:36,280 Speaker 1: we've seen crazier ship in life anyways. Yeah, and I'd 128 00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:37,719 Speaker 1: like to see some of my stuff come to life 129 00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:40,320 Speaker 1: and film. Um. I'm actually learning a little bit of 130 00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:45,600 Speaker 1: film myself to you know, uh, try and sharpen your skills. Yeah, 131 00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:48,320 Speaker 1: you know, bring it to the next level. Um. I 132 00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:51,280 Speaker 1: don't have the patience for animation, so you know, being 133 00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:53,120 Speaker 1: able to do it maybe live action and have someone 134 00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:55,680 Speaker 1: animated over it or incorporate the boat. You know, the 135 00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:57,240 Speaker 1: two of them might be cool. So did you go 136 00:06:57,320 --> 00:06:59,200 Speaker 1: to college for art or any of this stuff that 137 00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:03,159 Speaker 1: you're doing? Oh I um uh.

Well, it's funny, as you mentioned, kids 172 00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:40,520 Speaker 1: aren't because you know, I was doing some research on 173 00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:43,200 Speaker 1: you yesterday and this little devil that you had on 174 00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:48,040 Speaker 1: the pins on your website and wearing this devil. So 175 00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:50,800 Speaker 1: I was doing research on you, and then I had 176 00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:52,520 Speaker 1: my kids come in their room and they go, Dad, 177 00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:55,040 Speaker 1: what are you doing? I'm looking at this stuff on 178 00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:57,160 Speaker 1: this article on this guest we're gonna have and I 179 00:08:57,200 --> 00:09:01,760 Speaker 1: had my kids draw your logo. Look at this. You 180 00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:05,120 Speaker 1: guys like, how cool this is that the kids drew. 181 00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:09,160 Speaker 1: So then my kids go asked him to pick a winner, Dad, 182 00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:13,880 Speaker 1: is it a RB? Well, I don't have to go 183 00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:19,040 Speaker 1: home exactly. So Ralian Trayer eight and nine. So these 184 00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:21,240 Speaker 1: are done by an eight and nine year old. But 185 00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:23,440 Speaker 1: they were looking at your art, Shawn, as I was, 186 00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:26,160 Speaker 1: like I said, doing research on your website, and I go, you, guys, 187 00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:29,520 Speaker 1: let's have a drawing contest here at the house. And 188 00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:32,000 Speaker 1: then I go, um, let's see. And then we looked 189 00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:33,640 Speaker 1: at the website and then we had to pick a 190 00:09:33,679 --> 00:09:35,520 Speaker 1: picture first of all for them to draw, and they 191 00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:37,760 Speaker 1: chose this one, The Little Devil Children of Mind. I 192 00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:39,720 Speaker 1: don't know why they do. I guess they thought this 193 00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:41,719 Speaker 1: was the easier one to draw of everything. I think 194 00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:44,200 Speaker 1: that's really hosting because everything else was so damn eclectic 195 00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:47,760 Speaker 1: and crazy. But this is what they drew. And they 196 00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:50,640 Speaker 1: were inspired by you because to get my kids to 197 00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:52,959 Speaker 1: sit down and this was about minutes, you know what 198 00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:55,440 Speaker 1: I mean. This is the artwork that they did. I 199 00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:58,679 Speaker 1: was impressed. I'm gonna keep these myself. But although they 200 00:09:58,679 --> 00:10:00,640 Speaker 1: did say, dad, see if you want someone like oh, 201 00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:02,480 Speaker 1: I think I want him. It's so cool that you 202 00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:04,839 Speaker 1: guys did this. So Sean, you do have to pick 203 00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:06,719 Speaker 1: a winner, because they're gonna ask me which one did 204 00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:09,280 Speaker 1: he pick? Is it a the full paper or be 205 00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:11,440 Speaker 1: the cutout. We'll just put him in separate rooms and 206 00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:15,040 Speaker 1: tell him they won. You know, they're gonna go to 207 00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:19,720 Speaker 1: each other and say he picked mind exactly. And the 208 00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:22,760 Speaker 1: better part is. Yesterday we had some guy come over 209 00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:25,440 Speaker 1: the house and the kids brought about which one's better, 210 00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:28,199 Speaker 1: and the guy picked one in front of them. Yeah yeah, 211 00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:29,680 Speaker 1: because he didn't know and he just picked one. So 212 00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:31,120 Speaker 1: I was like, and he picked the one that he thought, 213 00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:35,240 Speaker 1: but like the tiebreaker, Well yeah, how about this we 214 00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:37,160 Speaker 1: could go around the room because like I looked at 215 00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:39,320 Speaker 1: these and I told the kids that go, I like 216 00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:42,360 Speaker 1: your horns better. I like your shape of the face better. 217 00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:45,000 Speaker 1: I don't like your tongue better, like your eyes better. 218 00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:52,360 Speaker 1: I like you. You didn't pick either. I couldn't. I 219 00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:54,600 Speaker 1: couldn't do it. I left the guy that came by 220 00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:57,640 Speaker 1: the house. Trays is really nice, and I think, well, 221 00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:00,000 Speaker 1: I don't say who's who? Oh, you know, you could 222 00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:02,880 Speaker 1: tell who are you? Come on? The Trays is really nice. 223 00:11:02,960 --> 00:11:05,959 Speaker 1: And I think trays faces is perfect more more like 224 00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:07,760 Speaker 1: like the face because I mean, look at look what 225 00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:10,000 Speaker 1: it's supposed to look like. What's honest thing there? Right? Yeah, 226 00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:12,439 Speaker 1: so as you look at what it's supposed to look like. Yeah, 227 00:11:12,679 --> 00:11:17,080 Speaker 1: and then Rayley's and trays Leys is a lot the 228 00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:20,160 Speaker 1: lines are you know, Sharper look nice, you know, and 229 00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:22,840 Speaker 1: then and then Trays is uh, you know, a little 230 00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:25,760 Speaker 1: bit more like the actual character. But I said Trays 231 00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:28,680 Speaker 1: had way more teeth, really had the exact amount of teeth, 232 00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:31,720 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like Raley had the right 233 00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:34,400 Speaker 1: amount of teeth. That's what I was looking at. Then 234 00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:36,200 Speaker 1: at first they had to go back and redo the 235 00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:38,600 Speaker 1: gray on the ears, and you know they're dead. I 236 00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:40,280 Speaker 1: need a pink pin. I need this pin, I need 237 00:11:40,280 --> 00:11:43,240 Speaker 1: that pin.

Nate Murray, he 297 00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:09,560 Speaker 1: used to work with I DW Comics, um and if 298 00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:11,360 Speaker 1: you don't know much about them, they're one of the 299 00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:14,920 Speaker 1: biggest independent comic companies. They did a lot of licensing, 300 00:15:15,440 --> 00:15:17,240 Speaker 1: licensed books. They had like G I Joe and My 301 00:15:17,280 --> 00:15:22,960 Speaker 1: Little Pony and X Files and um so they're uh. 302 00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:25,040 Speaker 1: One of their development guys saw me at Comic Con 303 00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:29,080 Speaker 1: and San Diego and saw my heart and he saw 304 00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:30,880 Speaker 1: a Fear and Loathing piece that I did. I had 305 00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:33,640 Speaker 1: this painting of Hunter S. Thompson and they had just 306 00:15:33,680 --> 00:15:36,240 Speaker 1: picked up the license for Fear and Loathing and wanted 307 00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:39,240 Speaker 1: me to do some like sketch covers and um that 308 00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:42,560 Speaker 1: never really materialized, and we started talking about some other projects. 309 00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:44,760 Speaker 1: The Wizard of Oz came out or came up, and 310 00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:48,520 Speaker 1: I did some samples with that. Um and then about 311 00:15:48,520 --> 00:15:51,320 Speaker 1: two years ago Nate calls me and says, hey, I 312 00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:53,760 Speaker 1: got my own company. Now I'm kind of branching off 313 00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:55,960 Speaker 1: doing my own thing. And he's like, I want to 314 00:15:56,000 --> 00:15:59,000 Speaker 1: do an Alice Alice in Wonderland book. He's like, I've 315 00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:01,520 Speaker 1: senior Alice art, which I did a bunch of Alice 316 00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:04,640 Speaker 1: are for the cannabis industry. And he saw that and 317 00:16:04,680 --> 00:16:07,680 Speaker 1: he's like, I think instead of Wizard of Oz because 318 00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:10,360 Speaker 1: he had actually done some pretty crazy research where the 319 00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:13,760 Speaker 1: Wizard of Oz fans actually like merch, they like t 320 00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:18,760 Speaker 1: shirts and hats and and Alice fans like collecting editions 321 00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:22,680 Speaker 1: of the book. So we figured, as you know, uh 322 00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:25,040 Speaker 1: for collectibility and you know, putting a book out, we 323 00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:28,920 Speaker 1: knew the Alice fans would appreciate it more so. Um, 324 00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:33,040 Speaker 1: it's attached to the movie. Uh no, it's this is Um. 325 00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:35,520 Speaker 1: There's something called the Guttenberg Project online, which is a 326 00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:38,760 Speaker 1: collection of all the open source books that are available, 327 00:16:38,960 --> 00:16:42,640 Speaker 1: and I think they're all in their original, unedited you know, 328 00:16:42,800 --> 00:16:45,200 Speaker 1: first edition, how it came out. And I think Alice 329 00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:47,240 Speaker 1: came out in eighteen sixty five or I think it's 330 00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:51,560 Speaker 1: a hundred and fifty eight years old this year. The movie. 331 00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:55,520 Speaker 1: The actual book, yeah, so not not associated. Didn't know 332 00:16:58,160 --> 00:17:06,159 Speaker 1: came out some Civil war time. UM's a lot of 333 00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:10,000 Speaker 1: people have been reading that book. You'd be surprised the 334 00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:13,440 Speaker 1: amount of additions. I mean, there's thousands of editions out 335 00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:17,000 Speaker 1: that artists have illustrated. So it's including Ralph Stepman, who 336 00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:19,439 Speaker 1: did all the artwork for Fear and Loathing. Um. I 337 00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:23,919 Speaker 1: have an edition that salvado'd Aali did the artwork for. Um. 338 00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:26,879 Speaker 1: So it's it's really cool that kind of to be 339 00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:29,920 Speaker 1: part of this family of artists over a hundred years, 340 00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:32,520 Speaker 1: a hundred and fifty years that have done artwork for 341 00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:37,040 Speaker 1: this book and interpreted these characters. So, um, yeah, he 342 00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:38,960 Speaker 1: saw the art that I did and was like, we 343 00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:40,720 Speaker 1: need to do an Aalyice book. So it took about 344 00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:42,440 Speaker 1: a year to get all the art together. And then 345 00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:45,880 Speaker 1: so the writing in the book is the actual original 346 00:17:45,960 --> 00:17:48,159 Speaker 1: Lewis Carroll manuscript, like how he wrote it back in 347 00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:50,600 Speaker 1: the eighteen sixties. And then it has twenty four of 348 00:17:50,600 --> 00:17:53,639 Speaker 1: my illustrations, twelve colored, twelve black and white, and then 349 00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:56,439 Speaker 1: there's like a sketch gallery in the back. So wow, 350 00:17:56,640 --> 00:17:59,680 Speaker 1: did you have to get special licensing to use their original? No, 351 00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:02,920 Speaker 1: it's a bit open source. Yeah, it's way past the 352 00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:05,439 Speaker 1: death of the author, so it's available to the public. 353 00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:08,879 Speaker 1: You just have to make sure it doesn't get anywhere 354 00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:14,359 Speaker 1: close to Disney's licenses or which I'm you know, unpopular opinion. 355 00:18:14,359 --> 00:18:16,119 Speaker 1: But I'm not a fan of the Alice stuff that 356 00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:19,760 Speaker 1: Disney's time the car I mean, I like the cartoon 357 00:18:19,800 --> 00:18:22,400 Speaker 1: when I was a kid, but once I was researching 358 00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:24,520 Speaker 1: and designing the characters for this, I was kind of like, 359 00:18:25,080 --> 00:18:27,760 Speaker 1: I definitely want to go in a different direction, and um, 360 00:18:27,800 --> 00:18:29,480 Speaker 1: seeing some of the stuff that's out there. Yeah, and 361 00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:31,800 Speaker 1: you don't want Disney knocking on your door either, Yeah, yeah, 362 00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:34,280 Speaker 1: that's the last thing you want.

I literally felt like I was looking at 376 00:19:14,840 --> 00:19:16,439 Speaker 1: every single thing as we had to pick out a 377 00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:18,840 Speaker 1: picture for them to draw. So I literally clicked on 378 00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:21,359 Speaker 1: everything I can possibly click on, which you have tons 379 00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:25,119 Speaker 1: of different things from stickers to I mean pens, and 380 00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:27,760 Speaker 1: its like it's kind of almost endless.

Like when my first 385 00:19:40,320 --> 00:19:43,679 Speaker 1: comic book came out through my professional comic, not the 386 00:19:43,680 --> 00:19:46,159 Speaker 1: one I did when I was fifteen, but I had 387 00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:48,119 Speaker 1: a comic called Industrious Side that came out in like 388 00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:51,720 Speaker 1: two thousand and four, and you know, it's an indie book, 389 00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:53,760 Speaker 1: so there's not a huge ad budget, you know, a 390 00:19:53,840 --> 00:19:56,200 Speaker 1: promotional budget, And a lot of my friends were DJs, 391 00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:58,439 Speaker 1: so I was like, where are you spinning?

So I noticed that 499 00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:22,239 Speaker 1: like the packaging design and backdrops and stuff like that 500 00:25:22,280 --> 00:25:24,760 Speaker 1: at the at the booths were it almost looked like 501 00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:26,800 Speaker 1: they took clip art and blew it up. And I 502 00:25:27,080 --> 00:25:29,479 Speaker 1: saw a need in the industry. I said, Wow, they 503 00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:32,760 Speaker 1: need some some art, and so I kind of talked 504 00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:35,520 Speaker 1: to the guys with Champs and UM for a few 505 00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:37,840 Speaker 1: years after, I had an art booth set up at 506 00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:41,160 Speaker 1: the front door kind of area with my buddy Vincent Gordon, 507 00:25:41,600 --> 00:25:43,880 Speaker 1: and so we just had just our art. We didn't 508 00:25:43,880 --> 00:25:47,399 Speaker 1: have any merchandise or weren't part of the accessory business yet. 509 00:25:48,200 --> 00:25:51,960 Speaker 1: And then I started doing covers for HERB magazine and 510 00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:55,480 Speaker 1: one of those magazines landed on UM this guy Cody 511 00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:58,760 Speaker 1: Paine's desk, and he was UM trying to get the O. 512 00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:02,640 Speaker 1: C B Organic Hemp papers launched, you know in the 513 00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:06,280 Speaker 1: United States, because one thing about ACV back then was 514 00:26:06,560 --> 00:26:08,600 Speaker 1: everybody else in the world knew about him, but the 515 00:26:08,680 --> 00:26:10,640 Speaker 1: United States they weren't that big, you know, like we're 516 00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:15,320 Speaker 1: all obviously it was dominant paper. And so he wrote 517 00:26:15,320 --> 00:26:16,920 Speaker 1: me and said, hey, look, we need to we want 518 00:26:16,960 --> 00:26:19,359 Speaker 1: to do some poster art because they have been doing 519 00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:22,040 Speaker 1: They also owned like job and Top Rolling papers, and 520 00:26:22,119 --> 00:26:25,440 Speaker 1: so they some of that older paper h poster art 521 00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:28,239 Speaker 1: for from like the late eighteen hundreds. You know, they 522 00:26:28,240 --> 00:26:32,080 Speaker 1: wanted to start continue that lineage. So they hired me 523 00:26:32,119 --> 00:26:36,199 Speaker 1: to do a poster, which was like I did this 524 00:26:36,320 --> 00:26:39,080 Speaker 1: kind of deity with like these stag horns and red hair. 525 00:26:39,720 --> 00:26:41,080 Speaker 1: You know, she was kind of like a forest d 526 00:26:41,240 --> 00:26:43,280 Speaker 1: D and she had like the Grand Canyon behind her 527 00:26:43,320 --> 00:26:46,439 Speaker 1: and um. Then I went and did some live art 528 00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:50,160 Speaker 1: at their booth at a s D and they opened 529 00:26:50,240 --> 00:26:52,639 Speaker 1: up all these cases of rolling trays. They didn't tell 530 00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:55,240 Speaker 1: me they were producing them, and he's like, I don't 531 00:26:55,240 --> 00:26:56,840 Speaker 1: have to tell you everything, and I'm like, well this 532 00:26:56,920 --> 00:26:59,280 Speaker 1: would have been nice, Like I don't even know what 533 00:26:59,280 --> 00:27:05,000 Speaker 1: she had for lunch, but something. Yeah. So yeah, when 534 00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:06,639 Speaker 1: he pulled it out, and at that time, it was 535 00:27:06,680 --> 00:27:08,760 Speaker 1: like raw had their tray, you know, with rall written 536 00:27:08,800 --> 00:27:10,360 Speaker 1: across it.

You know, 538 00:27:13,760 --> 00:27:18,119 Speaker 1: it's like fine art, you know. So we put that 539 00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:20,680 Speaker 1: out and that tray. They thought it was just gonna 540 00:27:20,680 --> 00:27:22,560 Speaker 1: be a novelty and I was like, no, I didn't 541 00:27:22,560 --> 00:27:24,879 Speaker 1: think you started something here.

Because therefore that would be 575 00:29:27,840 --> 00:29:30,240 Speaker 1: worthy of well ship. He put it up. It's up 576 00:29:30,280 --> 00:29:34,280 Speaker 1: everywhere at this house. Yeah. I try not to hang 577 00:29:34,280 --> 00:29:37,640 Speaker 1: my own artum well, because I lived in like now 578 00:29:37,640 --> 00:29:40,480 Speaker 1: we have a house with a detached studio, and you 579 00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:44,840 Speaker 1: know that early on, you know, I had to small apartment. 580 00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:46,680 Speaker 1: I had to hang my own art because that was storage. 581 00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:49,640 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah yeah. But now I have other artists 582 00:29:49,640 --> 00:29:51,520 Speaker 1: that I collect, you know, their art up on the 583 00:29:51,520 --> 00:29:55,120 Speaker 1: wall and um, but yes we do. Um. I do 584 00:29:55,240 --> 00:29:58,680 Speaker 1: have a piece. It's um it's like a carnival type piece. 585 00:29:58,680 --> 00:30:00,560 Speaker 1: It's an elephant standing on a all and then it's 586 00:30:00,560 --> 00:30:02,760 Speaker 1: got a girl doing acrobatics on top of his back. 587 00:30:02,800 --> 00:30:05,280 Speaker 1: And it was a piece I painted for my wife, 588 00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:08,520 Speaker 1: and because I had sold a piece that she liked 589 00:30:08,520 --> 00:30:09,840 Speaker 1: and wanted to keep, and that was kind of my 590 00:30:09,920 --> 00:30:12,960 Speaker 1: punishment I had repaint or something, you know. And she 591 00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:16,120 Speaker 1: has a rule to where if if something doesn't sell 592 00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:20,760 Speaker 1: within six months, she can claim it. So a rule, 593 00:30:20,920 --> 00:30:24,200 Speaker 1: yeah I have to follow now, um, but yeah, we 594 00:30:24,320 --> 00:30:26,320 Speaker 1: so we have a few special pieces up like that 595 00:30:26,320 --> 00:30:29,600 Speaker 1: that you know have either been uh, just kind of 596 00:30:29,640 --> 00:30:32,200 Speaker 1: moments in our marriage or at times that you're like, 597 00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:35,840 Speaker 1: oh yeah that painting, remember that? Um, I wish I 598 00:30:35,880 --> 00:30:38,600 Speaker 1: still had the I mean the two paintings I sold 599 00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:40,440 Speaker 1: to that gentleman who kind of got me into the 600 00:30:40,440 --> 00:30:43,840 Speaker 1: cannabis industry. He one of them was based off a 601 00:30:43,920 --> 00:30:47,040 Speaker 1: Pink Fluid song, Um, the final cut. It was on 602 00:30:47,080 --> 00:30:49,240 Speaker 1: that album, and the Gunner's Dream was the name of 603 00:30:49,280 --> 00:30:50,560 Speaker 1: the song. So I kind of listened to it and 604 00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:52,920 Speaker 1: painted what I wanted to And it was like a 605 00:30:52,920 --> 00:30:54,920 Speaker 1: little girl. It was all cp of tones and it 606 00:30:54,960 --> 00:30:56,760 Speaker 1: was like a little girl standing in a trench holding 607 00:30:56,760 --> 00:30:58,400 Speaker 1: a teddy bear and she had like a red kind 608 00:30:58,400 --> 00:31:01,080 Speaker 1: of bloody heart drawn on her d Us and there 609 00:31:01,120 --> 00:31:03,720 Speaker 1: was like a stuke of flying you know, air airplane 610 00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:06,280 Speaker 1: flying behind her and that was a special painting for 611 00:31:06,280 --> 00:31:10,280 Speaker 1: a while. And but yeah, I don't own that anymore, 612 00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:12,920 Speaker 1: but that's one of my favorites, Yeah, that I had done. 613 00:31:13,000 --> 00:31:15,000 Speaker 1: How long does it take you to do a piece? 614 00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:17,400 Speaker 1: Do you have to like premeditate first to get go 615 00:31:17,440 --> 00:31:19,360 Speaker 1: in a direction, and then once you have it, do 616 00:31:19,400 --> 00:31:22,640 Speaker 1: you jot anything down? Like what's that process? Like? Um, yeah, 617 00:31:22,640 --> 00:31:26,080 Speaker 1: it's it's a pretty extensive process. A lot of times 618 00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:30,160 Speaker 1: it'll take me four or five times in research than 619 00:31:30,240 --> 00:31:33,240 Speaker 1: it does to actually paint the thing. Um. A lot 620 00:31:33,280 --> 00:31:35,720 Speaker 1: of the paintings I do have a story behind it. UM. 621 00:31:36,200 --> 00:31:38,280 Speaker 1: I like that. I know some people do art and 622 00:31:38,280 --> 00:31:40,239 Speaker 1: they're like let the people figure it out, you know, 623 00:31:40,320 --> 00:31:42,240 Speaker 1: which is great. I like when people come up with 624 00:31:42,240 --> 00:31:46,480 Speaker 1: their own stories or meaning or what it means to them. Um. 625 00:31:46,600 --> 00:31:49,760 Speaker 1: But I don't really like painting art for just art's sake. 626 00:31:50,120 --> 00:31:52,000 Speaker 1: Like I'm kind of at my point in my career 627 00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:54,680 Speaker 1: now where I I use my art for like my 628 00:31:55,080 --> 00:31:57,600 Speaker 1: life journal. You know. It's kind of there's little things 629 00:31:57,680 --> 00:32:00,240 Speaker 1: hidden in the art. There's stuff stories behind the art 630 00:32:00,280 --> 00:32:01,880 Speaker 1: that I can look at and be like, oh, yeah, 631 00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:06,640 Speaker 1: that was this that? Yeah, remind you do do you 632 00:32:06,680 --> 00:32:10,600 Speaker 1: put like a paragraph about that piece on each do 633 00:32:10,640 --> 00:32:13,840 Speaker 1: you do you attach some kind of that story as well? 634 00:32:13,880 --> 00:32:17,720 Speaker 1: So on the website? Oh yeah, but I haven't. No, yeah, 635 00:32:17,720 --> 00:32:19,760 Speaker 1: I probably should start doing that. Huh. Yeah, I mean, 636 00:32:20,080 --> 00:32:22,200 Speaker 1: you know, because if if you plug it like that, 637 00:32:22,280 --> 00:32:25,239 Speaker 1: you know, I mean I think with the artists and 638 00:32:25,400 --> 00:32:27,280 Speaker 1: not only that, Like it's it's like for me, like 639 00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:29,120 Speaker 1: if I look at a nice piece of art of like, man, 640 00:32:29,200 --> 00:32:31,400 Speaker 1: what was this guy thinking? Right, because you know that 641 00:32:31,440 --> 00:32:34,720 Speaker 1: goes into the thought process, especially being an artist ourselves. 642 00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:36,400 Speaker 1: But then you go into and know what I mean, 643 00:32:36,440 --> 00:32:39,160 Speaker 1: like you know, I'm just artists. But but but but 644 00:32:39,200 --> 00:32:41,720 Speaker 1: if you if I got to read a small paragraph 645 00:32:41,760 --> 00:32:44,080 Speaker 1: about that, and then I could be like that's exactly 646 00:32:44,120 --> 00:32:46,120 Speaker 1: what I thought too. Or I could be like, wow, 647 00:32:46,160 --> 00:32:48,240 Speaker 1: I I've seen this. You know, it gives you more 648 00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:51,920 Speaker 1: of a relationship I think with your users. When I 649 00:32:51,960 --> 00:32:54,880 Speaker 1: think a lot of the originals I've sold, I've I've 650 00:32:54,880 --> 00:32:58,800 Speaker 1: sold them directly to the clients, so we've had that conversation, 651 00:32:59,040 --> 00:33:00,800 Speaker 1: and I guess that's why I have attached it. But 652 00:33:01,000 --> 00:33:03,720 Speaker 1: a lot of times you know, I'll sit down and UM, 653 00:33:03,720 --> 00:33:05,720 Speaker 1: there is one one painting in particular I did a 654 00:33:05,760 --> 00:33:08,880 Speaker 1: couple of years ago. UM. It's about six ft by 655 00:33:08,920 --> 00:33:13,520 Speaker 1: four ft, and it commemorates my buddy's grandfather's Stormy Normandy 656 00:33:13,720 --> 00:33:17,520 Speaker 1: and he fought all the way through to Germany. And 657 00:33:18,400 --> 00:33:20,280 Speaker 1: I believe the story goes when he was in the 658 00:33:20,320 --> 00:33:22,640 Speaker 1: boat about to hit the shores, he said, I'm gonna 659 00:33:22,680 --> 00:33:24,600 Speaker 1: make it to Brandenburg Gate. I'm gonna piss on it 660 00:33:24,640 --> 00:33:27,280 Speaker 1: and he did. I mean, this guy was a badass, 661 00:33:27,480 --> 00:33:31,120 Speaker 1: you know, and um so I mean it took years 662 00:33:31,120 --> 00:33:34,960 Speaker 1: of research, um, longer than John would probably have liked 663 00:33:35,600 --> 00:33:37,920 Speaker 1: to do the painting. But in the end, I think 664 00:33:37,920 --> 00:33:40,080 Speaker 1: it you know, sometimes they don't take I mean this 665 00:33:40,120 --> 00:33:42,360 Speaker 1: painting took a hundred and fifty hours alone to paint, 666 00:33:42,960 --> 00:33:46,920 Speaker 1: and I streamed it over eleven weeks during COVID on 667 00:33:46,960 --> 00:33:49,200 Speaker 1: Twitch so he could tune in and watch his painting 668 00:33:49,240 --> 00:33:52,360 Speaker 1: come to life. And then we did a big unveiling 669 00:33:52,600 --> 00:33:55,640 Speaker 1: and talked about like each element. But how long was 670 00:33:55,640 --> 00:33:59,000 Speaker 1: the research? Um? I think it was five years of 671 00:33:59,320 --> 00:34:03,560 Speaker 1: really know, um, not like every day researching. But sometimes 672 00:34:03,600 --> 00:34:06,040 Speaker 1: I had to take a break, and um, I had 673 00:34:06,040 --> 00:34:07,880 Speaker 1: to read a couple of books. I watched a lot 674 00:34:07,880 --> 00:34:11,840 Speaker 1: of World War two documentaries, um, all the reference photos. 675 00:34:11,840 --> 00:34:13,440 Speaker 1: So he was at the Battle of St. Los. So 676 00:34:13,480 --> 00:34:16,360 Speaker 1: I had to download, you know, probably thousands of pictures 677 00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:20,160 Speaker 1: that I downloaded to kind of get what angle I wanted, 678 00:34:20,200 --> 00:34:22,160 Speaker 1: maybe of the cathedral in the town, which was like 679 00:34:22,200 --> 00:34:25,319 Speaker 1: the only standing structure left after the battle, and so 680 00:34:25,400 --> 00:34:26,960 Speaker 1: there's there was a lot to go into it. And 681 00:34:27,000 --> 00:34:28,560 Speaker 1: for me, I'm a huge World War two buff and 682 00:34:28,840 --> 00:34:30,120 Speaker 1: I do a lot of World War two pent up 683 00:34:30,160 --> 00:34:31,840 Speaker 1: art as well, outside of like the you have that 684 00:34:31,880 --> 00:34:34,640 Speaker 1: picture uh not on me. It's on the website. It's 685 00:34:34,640 --> 00:34:38,839 Speaker 1: called Prone to Victory. You could pull it up. Oh yeah, 686 00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:40,680 Speaker 1: you can pull it up. Pull it up right now, 687 00:34:41,400 --> 00:34:45,799 Speaker 1: um yeah. And so that piece I didn't want to 688 00:34:45,800 --> 00:34:47,759 Speaker 1: do just like a dreary World War two painting and 689 00:34:47,800 --> 00:34:50,200 Speaker 1: commemory his grandfather, like him standing next to a tank. 690 00:34:50,280 --> 00:34:52,719 Speaker 1: So what I did is I kind of took inspiration 691 00:34:52,760 --> 00:34:56,280 Speaker 1: from Dolly and surrealists, and I said, let's animalize everything. 692 00:34:56,800 --> 00:35:00,360 Speaker 1: So you have like MG forty two mosquitoes, Willie jeeps 693 00:35:00,440 --> 00:35:06,280 Speaker 1: or spiders, telemine beetles, there's shrimantipedes like shriman tank, centipedes. 694 00:35:06,320 --> 00:35:10,319 Speaker 1: So there's all these really weird, crazy animals that are 695 00:35:10,360 --> 00:35:13,960 Speaker 1: fighting each other. And then there's like this bishop um 696 00:35:14,000 --> 00:35:15,600 Speaker 1: that's kind of standing in the middle that has his 697 00:35:15,719 --> 00:35:19,200 Speaker 1: grandfather's insignia for his unit. To look at something that 698 00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:21,400 Speaker 1: I'm trying to pint. What's it called here? Because prone 699 00:35:21,480 --> 00:35:24,360 Speaker 1: to victory? Is it under your your originals or where's 700 00:35:24,360 --> 00:35:27,480 Speaker 1: it at be under prince prince because he is the 701 00:35:27,480 --> 00:35:33,400 Speaker 1: original throne to victor? Here? Yeah, look at that. Wow, 702 00:35:33,840 --> 00:35:36,160 Speaker 1: look at that five year piece aiming at me a 703 00:35:36,200 --> 00:35:39,520 Speaker 1: little more and it's it's uh yeah, it's definitely the 704 00:35:39,520 --> 00:35:43,640 Speaker 1: most complex piece that I've I've painted beautiful. You can 705 00:35:43,640 --> 00:35:46,200 Speaker 1: see why. It took about a hundred and fifty hours 706 00:35:46,200 --> 00:35:48,960 Speaker 1: to paint, about sixty hours to sketch it out. Oh 707 00:35:49,000 --> 00:35:52,920 Speaker 1: my god, what's that helmet on? Like a fish whale 708 00:35:52,960 --> 00:35:55,520 Speaker 1: coming out? It's a Higgins landing craft that I turned 709 00:35:55,520 --> 00:35:57,400 Speaker 1: into a whale. So that's and then there's like a 710 00:35:57,400 --> 00:35:59,839 Speaker 1: Willie's jeep spider crawling out of it. So is that 711 00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:03,200 Speaker 1: everything he expected you to do? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, And 712 00:36:03,239 --> 00:36:05,120 Speaker 1: you can see his grandfather in the middle of the 713 00:36:05,160 --> 00:36:08,280 Speaker 1: painting kind of it's like a pencil sketch.
