Episode 107 - Nanna Guldbaek (Lervig)

This week’s featured artist is Nanna Guldbeak. We came to learn of her work through a recommendation from a former alum James Yeo. Nanna is the creative force behind Lervig where she brings their cans and branding to life with her unique art and designs. 

This world traveler is currently based in London (where we are posting this), but has a passport full of adventure and experiences that help her tell her stories and evolve the brand. A humble and fun guest with a great perspective and insight into her process. 

Episode 106 - Noah Deledda (Can Denting Artist)

This week’s featured artist is truly one of a kind. The extremely talented sculptor is Noah Deledda by way of Tampa,FL. We came to learn of his work through a supporter of the project and his experience at Tampa Bay Beer Week 2019.

His work and its meaning are much more than the can that is shaped and repurposed for the art. It tells a story of life and appreciation for the simpler things and those pieces which connect us all. Through an everyday object that is often overlooked or just an after thought he gives it a new meaning and purpose that is powerful, beautiful and elaborate. This is truly a 16oz. Canvas.

Episode 105 - Dune Haggar (Colonial Brewing Co.)

This week's featured artist is Dune Haggar who joins us from Perth, Australia, another first for the project. We came to learn of Dune through his vivid and lucid images he creates which were brought to labels with Colonial Brewing Co. His work stands out for its creativity, adventure and Escher-like qualities. A humble guest who loves what he does and uses unique canvases to display his creativity and adventures. This shows the power of the project and community we are building together which allows us to connect with great people from all walks of life from various corners of the world. Art is powerful.

We dedicate this episode to the people of Christchurch, NZ who tragically were taken from us too soon.

Episode 104 - Blake Stevenson (Elora Brewing Co.)

This week's featured artist is Blake Stevenson by way of Canada. We came to learn of Blake through his work with Collective Arts Brewing & Elora Brewing Co. Take a trip down memory lane as we look back with pride on nostalgia, old game systems and the growth of tech in our lives. A laid back conversation that discusses his story, origin of Jet Packs and Roller Skates and we even discuss the A word. An easy listen with minimal rambling from the host too, which is always a fan favorite. Less is more.

Episode 103 - Michael Hacker (Dogfish Head)

This week’s featured artist is Michael Hacker. Michael is another great example of the power and reach of craft beer by being our first artist from Germany or Austria depending on the time of the year and his location. An incredible Illustrator who brings humor, life and energy to his works all while loving a good world play and pun. Our story connects us with him through his work with Dogfish Head and what a kick ass job he does for them in conjunction with the Off-Centered Artist series. What started as part of their Record Store Day involvement has grown to see him work on American Beauty, The Perfect Disguise, a reimagined 75 Minute IPA and much more including his most recent poster art for Beer Advocate 'Extreme Beer Fest', not to mention his many gig posters and his Pizza pun inspired book, Pizzeria Disgusto.

Learn about his story, process and what is next for him in his creative adventures. A great perspective with an impressive artist.

Episode 102 - Rob Warnick (LIC Beer Project)

This week’s featured artist is Rob Warnick, a KY-native who now calls Cincinnati home. We came to learn for him through his work with LIC Beer Project, but were delighted to discover his fun and lively portfolio of designs and illustrations that we are sure you will love. Learn about his first memory of drawing, his love of music and baseball as well as process and perspective.

A true feel good story of a hard working artist who wears many hats doing what he loves. I look forward to catching up with Rob in the future and hopefully having the pleasure of collaborating together. This is a great episode in that it is genuine and we connected. What started off as two strangers warmed up like a good bourbon for laughs and perspective. One of the things that I am most proud of in doing these interviews are when artists and designers get the opportunity to look back at their journey and realize how special and great it is to get them to this point. I don’t mean it all lead up to being on the podcast, but that they are doing something they love and made the not so easy choice of design as a career. It’s special and brings me much joy.
