Chris Walter

Around the World With Mr. Chi Pig (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The world loved Mr Chi Pig and his band SNFU, but fewer people knew that the man was also an accomplished artist. Rarely without a pen in hand as he toured the globe, his imaginative doodles and lyrics bared the inner workings of a unique and byzantine mind. Later, when the singer's declining health made touring difficult, he turned to art full-time, producing an abundance of simple yet instantly identifiable canvasses for excited fans worldwide. From his early days as an emerging artist and musician to his premature death in July 2020, this is a cautionary tale of the iconic artist who will live forever in our hearts and minds. Contains many full page photos of Chi's inimitable artwork. Note: This book includes fewer photos than the print version, but contains more than than two extra chapters of text. As well, most of the images in this book have never been published. A hope-to-die drug addict, Chris Walter began writing full-time in 1998 after realizing that his life up to that point had been largely meaningless. His first published novel, Punk Rules OK, went mostly unnoticed but inspired him to take a DIY approach to the game. With help from his partner who worked at a printing shop, he launched GFY Press and began to write, publish, and distribute a steady stream of novels and music biographies. Incredibly, he found a small measure of success. After kicking drugs to the curb in 2001, Chris expanded GFY Press to include unschooled troublemakers Simon Snotface, Stewart Black, Drew Gates, and Ali Kat, drawing further criticism from the established literary industry. More than thirty-two titles and twenty-four years later, Chris Walter and GFY Press remain unrepentant and committed.
