This week I speak to Danish artist and writer John Kenn Mortensen! We talk about his viral Post-It Note drawings from 13 years ago that gave him his start as a professional fine artist, his childhood confusing adults and teachers by drawing monsters, becoming a kid's TV writer and director, getting his first solo show and quitting his day job, being a horror novelist, horror movies, heavy metal and much more! I really love John's work and it was really great getting to meet him and chat with him! Also, a quick art life update.
