This week my guest is the legendary Wes Benscoter!!! Wes was a big inspiration for me when I was starting to think about having a painting career so this interview was one I was kind of nervous about doing. We talk about our many similarities (LOTS of similarities), drawing monsters as a kid, working on many legendary metal album covers (straight out of High School!), being a self taught acrylic painter, airbrushing, acrylic techniques, film making, horror films, working as an illustrator and tons more! I had a blast talking with Wes. It's always awesome when artists you admired from afar turn out to be really nice people.
Also a quick art life update and new subscribers.
Interview starts at 5:36
