Jeremy Dan Fish, born in Albany New York, 1974. “At first glance, Fish’s images seem to be rooted in an alternate world — a world where gnomes travel via saddled dachshund-back and birds of all nations hatch adorned with the heads and hairstyles of every human stereotype imaginable. The bold, precise outlines give his ideas an immediate impact, but it’s the aftertaste that really cuts deep. Everything comes with a story. I have never known Jeremy to create something without a reason for it to exist and an accompanying tale. His pictures are built from the simplest ingredients, ingredients with which the everyman can identify. I’ve been around the world and met a lot of “artists” who eat, shit, and breathe inside a bubble of self-aggrandizement, armies of yes-men at their sides ready to toot the bugles for every flimsy “breakthrough” they put forth. Jeremy Fish avoids that typecasting by boiling his intentions down to their most elemental forms: he makes pictures, he makes a lot of them, he makes them for himself, he makes them for the people, and he makes them from the heart. I am proud to say that I look up to him. You should too.” –Aesop Rock

Hey Jeremy,
I’m a big fan and I was hoping to get some input from you. I draw and I’d love it if you took a moment to check out some of my work and give a few pointers. I’m trying to eventually sell some drawings, but it’s a hell of a market to crack into so far (not for trying at length). Any words you have would be great. If not, then I don’t blame you. You can find my art at pushinglines.tumblr.com
Thanks for your time,
