Walrus TV Artist Feature: Ryan Jacob Smith Interview

Id rather be sincere than hip, if anything.
-Ryan Jacob Smith

Text-laden and pastel-colored, Ryan Jacob Smiths work is funny, clever, and nostalgic all at once. Inspired by vintage thrift store finds, childhood, and angst, his paintings integrate his fascination with the past with the present. Ryan Jacob Smiths work has been included in group and solo exhibitions in Portland, San Francisco, Los Angeles, and throughout the United States. Watch the interview, available for the first time to the public for free, from Walrus TV.
