Interview with Coolvader
For those of you familiar with the custom toy scene, you should probably know Coolvader. He stepped into the game as a painting powerhouse. One of the most impressive things about Coolvader is that he survives as an artist. Living out of Brooklyn, NY, he manages to paint enough toys to have a steadily fluctuating income.
You can have Coolvader make YOU a custom too! Just send your requests to info@deliciousdrips.com
We took some time out of his busy schedule to get a little background on Coolvader.
1.)How do you explain vinyl toys to peopple?
When my family asks, “What do you do?” i tell them that i paint
toys. From that point, you either get it, or you don’t.
2.) What was the first piece that you ever did?
A dunny donated by Boxguts got me started painting toys, and it
turned out great.
Coolvader's first custom piece
3.) Top 3 supplies: paint, gloss, brushes.
4.) I work in my loft apartment, usually on the couch at coffee table.
5.) What kind of feeling do you try to evoke from your artwork?
Sometimes i try to get fellings, other times i just let the art
dictate where it goes.
