"I hope to make something vulnerable in that I am accountable for it, putting it out there and backing it up.” This episode's guest of The Swell Season Surf Radio Podcast is artist Fritz Chesnut, whose work has been described as geographical at heart and an examination of place — the canvas — and its possibilities. His work mixes together bold fields of color, overlaid with patterns and intricate layers of lines, grids, and dots. He is also an exceptional goofy foot that once lived in NYC but now resides in LA with his wife, actor Molly Shannon and their two kids. Fritz recently finished up a show called ‘Floating Windows” at the AF Projects in LA. He discusses his influences, creative process, and rediscovering surfing when he least expected it in NYC.

The Swell Season Podcast is recorded by The NewsStand Studio at Rockefeller Center in the heart of Manhattan and is distributed by The Swell Season Surf Radio Network
