Description

Wilson: “I’ve always been digging pirates because what could be more opposite from a Nebraska cornfield than the fucking Caribbean with the bloodthirsty pirates boarding a big fat Spanish ship full of loot. I always hankered for the ocean. It’s just a fantasy, a childhood fantasy. What kid didn’t want to play pirates, gangsters, or cowboys and Indians? Surrounded by all those cornfields and shit is why I moved to San Francisco to be next to the water. Absolute fantasy and other worldliness. To escape the confines of Bible Belt Nebraska and cornfields. That is one of the reasons I draw pirates even to this very day.”
