Takun Williams is an unstoppable graphic artist and illustrator. I’ve interviewed him here.

I’ve interviewed the outstanding artist and pro surfer Sean Tully here. Check out the Forums for all kinds of art-related excellence.

I’ve interviewed the amazing NYC-based artist Michael Alan here. Be sure to check the forums for all kinds of art goodness.

since i’m canadian, the idear of “british” is quite a commonplace thing for me.  we are after all, a commonwealth of sorts.. we have the queen on our moneys and have a political system that resembles the uk’s.  but lately, the british have really been making an impact to me in the most interesting way.  as i’m exposed to more british artists, i can see a wonderful world of skewed thinking, application and expression.  (and i mean that in no offensive way- just the same way perhaps, that any other foreigner would find north americans ’skewed’).
a few weeks ago i went to see the ian francis show at kinsey/deforges gallery and was completly blown away.  with the lazarides show invading new york, i’m sure things have really only begun.  of course, i don’t have to mention the insane paths that banksy and damien hirst have already taken..

but this is an exciting time- as artists are coming together and crossing cultures, affecting other people and establishing strong voices.  i’m sure yoskay will get a great response as he shows in london next year, and for myself and the project: boys, i think i can safely say we can’t wait to be in spain this coming january.

cheers! and thanks to daily dujour for having me here.
