I just gotta say... Sirena Ong would be a lot happier if she took up that guard's offer and played Nintendo games. The games from the 90s are still awesome today and yes Nintendo's still relevant god damn it. The Nintendo Switch is a fantastic system.

I know how annoying this is but I need to know what the fuck yall were thinking when you wrote the end of Blood of the Father, Heart of Steel. Mostly why does Shore Leave stand there with his jaw dropped and hands on his hips while Hank and Brock are talking, because all I can think is that the whole reconciliation scene is suuuuper gay. Don't pull a David Lynch, I have to know what the fuck this means.

Don't get me wrong, I love Sirena and Warriana, but "Hank, I'll never leave you" sounds gay as fuck, not to mention how they're closer to each other than with anyone else in the family

We need Doc Hammer and Jackson Publick to record Barenaked Ladies’ “If I had $1,000,000″ as 21 and The Monarch. We need this. Someone tell me how to make this happen.

Love your work, man. Season 6 of Venture was what turned me from a fan to a FAN. 
I think "A Party For Tarzan" is the best episode to date.

I know you hear it from everyone, but love your's and Jackson Publick's work on Venture Bros. I am pretty blown away with your paintings and music. Weep is now on my spotify list. Anyway,
figured I give you a link to help with your Doctor Strange collection. Saw these and remember you said your a fan. www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/se…

Can I just say me and my boyfriend were totally dicking around about what crazy villain name was going to be introduced, only to shortly die afterwards, and no joke I said The Serpant and my boys like "with his trusty sidekick Serpintine!". We both bout fell out our chairs when he was introduced in the lasted episode we were watching last night via DVR(can't afford cable, record at moms....first world, I know). Anywho, here's to being on the late/same wavelength. Cheers! Oh, and here's to just being another schmo, shmo(?), leaving quips about VB smiley face.

Piss in Duchamp's fountain… funny.
I would like to ask you to change your policy and post your work, if not here, somewhere online.
While I agree that Academic sanction of art is platonic vomit at best and fascism at worst,
I believe removing your art from the web may be a disservice. Two reasons: first, I live
in Brooklyn- Kentucky, as far from a gallery as it is possible to get. Second, you can't presume
to know when or how transcendent communion art will occur. I grew up in a holler in rural Kentucky.
When I was twelve I found a book of 15th century Flemish painting. I was touched beyond
accounting and have filled my life with art ever since. I have no talent, only love. My forays into
"criticism" generally left me feeling hollow. But I can still get online, or open one of my books and
feel transported, opened, torn apart and rebuilt. Anyway, I like your work. I hate that I can't see it.

Mr. Hammer...your show, The Venture Bros., is AMAZING. I am a huge, HUGE fan.
Go Team Venture!

Big fan of the whole venture universe... sorry if this annoys you. I think it's art related...
The logos! for venture industries and the guild! any of the logos... are those yours? My questions are I guess (if you did them), first, what were you thinking? I ask because I think they are very good. I would never think of things like that. I usually think of logos as very simple but, take the guild's for example, looks like the best class ring ever, but I like it a lot. Maybe because of the sense of humor it's made with, but I also think it's really cool in a childish sort of way. (I sometimes enjoyed pretending to be the bad guys as a kid.)
Are any of these yours? Your thoughts on them? Not sure how many questions that is, but any related reflections on this would make my day. Thanks.

The logos on Venture? Yeah, I did those. It’s funny that you think they’re not simple. They are all one color and have no halftones. That’s pretty simple. Not quite Saul Bass simple, but not too far away. The Guild one is slightly more complex. Ya see, they founded their organization when logos were more ornate. Theirs is more based on heraldry than a corporate logo. Sure, the Guild now is a corporate entity of sorts, but they began as group of hero’s protecting The O.R.B.’s secret. After infighting they splintered and formed The Guild of Calamitous Intent. Oh, I really overthink this shit. Cartoons are serious business!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
lol saul bass... but yeah that's exactly what I meant. Just that it's not mostly basic shapes and letters in the blank spaces and that you are generous with the number of imagery / symbols
You've made me love that skull btw. It's almost embarrassing to describe how happy I was when the skull slowly made its way toward me in the beginning of the trailer to season 6 as the music started up.
Thanks for the reply

As it were, by some string of choices made my way to typing this comment. I'm not sure what I'm doing, but if I get rid of all the voices from the perceived "eyes on me" it feels a lot easier to express myself. I'm constantly haunted with thoughts of where I am suppose to be going. Why am I letting all of these eyes influence what I do? Where ever passion is found in my heart, fear seems to creep about. What the fuck am I afraid of? Insecurity? Assuming I was destitute, I would still have my mind, my thoughts, my words. Or rather, still I think, I speak, I choose. Then what is destitute when life carry's on?
I feel like everyone thinks in terms of "the end" or "the beginning". Like the typical first relationship, with all the goo goo coos and puppy love that ends abruptly with the mental trauma that comes with experiencing bloody sheets for the first time. Heartbreak. But then 10 or 20 years later the experience matures into a funny story. Kinda like mushrooms from cow shit. Everything keeps moving, always in motion.
What aches my heart... is what I love doing best. It is a secret I keep. I will take my True role in life to the grave because it's that beautiful to me. I cry. At the same time, I feel incredibly loved to have found it, which brings me harder into tears. Elation on the backside of sorrow, what a coin. I want to see your paintings, the curiosity will tear me if I do nothing. Because I now see your Spirit, I have been wrapped up in the experience of your Schrodinger creations. I believe they exist and yet I've never seen them. That statement is crazy and in truth, very, very, heartbreaking.
I don't care what you make of it, but things are lining up and I see the path lining up ahead. It's very hazy, but I know I am being guided in a way. Turns out I will be in L.A. around May 19. I don't even know if that's where you are, or if you even live in Cali. Fair assumption? Stop your crucifying stare. I'm there for vacation anyway.
Either way, If I die not seeing them, that's how I experience your creation. Now I feel Venture Bros was just a toe dip. I have the [AS] stream going right now. What I love about the series is underlying stuff. Everything is painstakingly chosen, every word, the order of events, like the brush strokes of a painting. Whats more, the experience occurs over the span of my existence, each re-run giving me something new and subtle to mentally chew on. Thank you for what you have given. I could not have invented that flavor of Love in my wildest imagination; sometimes it cries me into laughter. It makes me feel very loved to experience that laughter. Thank you so much, whatever you are.
You are very loved for what you are. I'm not talking about the love from a fan, but the Love that is in All . You change universes whether you know it or not. I enjoy your sunlight. It means Infinity to me.
I love you too,
YS

your paintings look amazing. They remind me of Vertigo Comics from the 90's or maybe the Killing Joke, but they look great. GJ on the Venture Bros. It's one of my favorite shows on T.V. and I hope it get all the recognition it deserves.
