Me: I don't usually work with artists. I like comedic timing.
New guy: I have timing. You need that in art.
Me: Are you street trained? Do you do have street smarts?
New Guy: I'm classically trained.
Me: I used to breakdance. I'll saw the movie breakin so I understand that there's quite a tension between the street talent and the school talent.
New Guy: The school wins every time.
Me: If you are schooled you don't die as much. Street artists have to worry about the third rail. I saw beat street. The king of the beat.
Me: The question is can you draw comedy?
New guy: I think I can.
Me: Let's see what you got.
The artist shows a couple pics that he just jotted down during the conversation.
Me: I'm looking for a sidekick. I need someone. I can't be alone. I need an artist drawing me. What's your schedule like, I want someone who can be around.
New guy: I live with my parents and I just got laid off at boarders books and music, so my schedule is pretty clear.
Me: You live with your parents? How old are you?
New guy: I'm 40
Me: Ok your hired. Can you draw me with my shirt off?
New guy: I guess.
