Poorman’s 15 Minutes of Fame: Josh Agle AKA Shag (Painter, Designer, Illustrator)
Description
“A lot of them are set in the middle of a story. So something happened before. You’re looking at something, and then something’s gonna happen later, which I did to kind of engage people so they’d look at the art longer, you know, and try and figure out what was going on. [Give me one one of your favorites.] Oh, I think one of my favorites is set in Palm Springs, and it’s in one of those classic mid-century modern houses. It’s a cocktail party and there’s a dead bird on the floor and people at the party are looking appalled. And then if you look to the far right of the painting, there’s a woman in an evening gown and she’s hiding a gun behind her back. So, you know, you gotta figure out what the story is, basically.” —Josh Agle AKA Shag (Painter, Designer, Illustrator)
