Having never been into art before, my eyes started to open to art appreciation because of Shag. Yes i'm probably an art simpleton, but at that point I started a journey of discovery leading to Ryden, Bosko, Von Dutch, Leeteg, Sven Kirsten, Martin Denny, Tiki Bars, tiki Central etc etc so I can thank Shag for introducing me to a completely different world. Sure he has cashed in on his popularity, but he owes us nothing. I sold some of his early prints for 7 times what I paid, then I bought Marvel stock with that and now i'm richer also. THANK YOU SHAG!!
