Why the decision to set up your skateboard company, ‘Eerie Skateboards’? Your guess is as good as mine, man. The closest thing to a collection that I have are the dirty clothes on my floor and the ambition to make a living from doing what I love, which would be creating. What does your wife/girl/woman/family make of the whole perpetual adolescence/Peter-Pan/man-child aspect of toy art + toy collecting? I’m still single, so that should say something. What are your thoughts of the toy forum scene as a way for fans and artists to communicate? Is it a real ‘community’ or just a virtual locker-room shit talk? Hahaha, you hit the nail on the head with the latter. (Picture below of one of the many Incredible Crash Test Dummies, Andy’s most loved toy-line) Damn, those things were fun to play with. I guess I’d have to say the original Incredible Crash Dummies. No hard feelings, guys.įavorite toy/figure? (I’ll allow self promotion) Jesus, that’s as hard a question as the band one earlier. I can almost guarantee you that this art toy boom will soon dwindle, due to the egotistical nature of most of the individuals who call themselves artists. Is the rise of ‘art’ toys an indication of the changing nature of ‘art’? OR just a bunch of nerds with too much $$$ and time? The perception of art will constantly ebb and flow. Went to the inaugural summer seminar at the Center For Cartoon Studies up in Vermont back in like 2004/05. I’d like to say I read comics on a daily basis, but that would be false. Read it back in high school and it’s reverberated up to this point. (Picture below of a one-off work by FEASTBoy)įavorite books and comics? ‘Into The Wild’. RIP Ultimate Warrior.įavorite movie(s)? Creepshow, On Stranger Tides (the most recent Pirates flick), Alien, Creature From The Black Lagoon, The Mummy (w/ Brendan Fraser) The closest thing to it that I’ve been known to binge watch on occasion are classic WWF matches. (Picture below of a collection of paintings by FEASTBoy)įavorite band(s)? Way too many to list, as I’ve fallen deeply in love with music over the past year or so, but I’ll name off a few that really get my pulse pounding: Melvins, Bad Brains, Descendents, Teenage Bottlerocket, Weedeater, The Ghastly Ones, Sleep and definitely Graves-era Misfits (Yeah, I’m that guy)…įavorite TV show(s)? If I’d actually keep up with it, I’m sure I’d write “Game Of Thrones”, but I don’t so I’ll put down “Black Sails” and “Vikings” instead.įavorite sport(s) + teams? I don’t really watch sports. Personal motto/quote? Life is too short to judge others. I’m sure your readers are expecting to read something like “AT THIS STAGE, I WENT OFF ON MY OWN TO VANQUISH THREE HEADED HYDRAS AND COMBAT EVIL” and I guess to that extent, I am doing that, but it’s all internal. * age 20 – acceptance of pubes: Realizing I wasn’t content with the school of my choosing. I just remember hating everything about everything. * age 15 – pube rage: Nothing too memorable from this time frame, at least not that I’m aware of. It was a complete accident and not something I’m proud of, but a memory that sticks out like a sore thumb. He never came back to my Kindergarten class. * age 10 – pre pubes: I accidentally beat a kid in the face with a PVC pipe. Concerts, art, action-figures, women, school, college… ANYTHING man.
