- Description:
- Scott Stanton, otherwise known as Panhandle Slim, is an artist who works in Savannah. Having previously worked in the skateboarding and music industries, Stanton now mainly focuses on political paintings that incorporate quotes from historical, political, and cultural figures.
In this interview, Scott Stanton discusses his early life which involved a good deal of traveling (domestically and internationally). While his first paintings were mainly of musicians, he shifted towards more political themes after the shooting of Trayvon Martin. He began to add quotes to his paintings as well. Stanton extensively discusses his involvement with the Women's March--Stanton painted dozens of signs for marchers from Savannah to carry at the Women's March on Washington. He concludes the interview by discussing the relationship between money and art. - Metadata URL:
