Makers' Remarks

S1, E5: Dave Sherrill; from Vintage to Viral


Listen Later

Dave Sherrill is an incredible painter and content creator. His handle, Dave Ruins Art, might sound destructive, but I see it as more about repurposing or renewing. He takes old paintings and canvases and transforms them into stunning works of art, often inspired by 1980s movies and pop culture.

In this episode, we talk about a wide range of topics, including Dave's Best Artist award from Cleveland Magazine, how he decides which art to "ruin," and his ambitious goal to build his own world—so he can fully own the inspiration behind his creations.
