For a shorter listen, audio split into 2 parts:
Part 1: Focusing on Kickliy's art reinvention following his accident, discovering Monet and creating Musnet and Purdy
Part 2: All things GI Joe (rediscovering the Joe toys, discovering Garrido, his GI Joe art) plus State Fair and live Sports paining.
I've attached some of the images we refer to in our conversation.
Kickliy , based in Minnesota has been publishing and making art professionally for over twenty years
He is well known to G.I. Joe fans for his amazing G.I. Joe pieces. We cover those, but also the artistic path that led him there.
This is a long old chat, and it takes a while to get into his GI joe drawing (around 43 mins in) but i think our listeners often enjoy the "long way around"
