Who or What... the F*** is a Spicy Donut?
I’ll take you back on a journey to the early days of the internet, The year was probably 1998. A young Devin Lawson was first becoming interested in girls. He needed a catchy moniker to AOL chat with these nebulous girls, likely robots desiring credit cards in reality. And so a name was plucked from an obscure anime reference (Trigun) as was a popular tradition for nerds of the time. So clever! The girls will fall in line! None did for at least 4 years...
Still, Spicy Donut seemed a fitting description for much of the art I want to create. A metaphor for the spicy dark side and donut for the sweet silly side. And in the tradition of Ed “Big Daddy” Roth, the name stuck, and for the next 20+ years, I have been making Spicy Donut art.
I have been featured in renowned international publications like FANGORIA, Juxtapoz, and Clutter Magazine. And in less renowned publications that would likely get you a stern talking to by your disappointed parents. I have also animated for huge companies that probably regret having my name on the credits like Showtime, EA, and Trojan. Yes, that Trojan. Stay safe kids. You can see my apparel designs on the clearance racks of a few major retailers like Hot Topic, Pac Sun, and Discount Jimmy’s Fun Time Store for Florida tourists.
My goal is to teach you how to be as disreputable and obscure as I am or with enough effort, even worse.
