THOSE NUTTY BOYS! RICO. . . When he's not deep sea fishing off the coast of Idaho, Rico spends hours at the drawing table diligently interpreting the frolics of Harry Beaver. "These graphics will rank among the worlds most vital images, along side such great works as the Mona Lisa and the Sistine Chapel." touts the dentally challenged artist. An honorary member of Joe Bob Billy's Correspondence School of Fine Arts, Rico mastered in finger paints and coloring between the lines. Feeling undaunted by such top studios as Disney, Dreamworks, and Warner Borthers studios, Rico chose instead to work at a string of screen printing shops as a part time artist/screen cleaner. Rico states "Cleaning thousands of screens throughout the years has given me the ability to see my artwork from many different perspectives.....not to mention a rare, incurable skin disease". When approached with Harry Beaver, Rico immediately sensed that Wonderboy had a vision... a delicate mixture of genius and the truly demented. According to Rico, "Wonderboy is of that rare breed that can envision everything from the broadest concept to the most minute detail AND look good in a Mustang convertible." The Harry Beaver Project has brought inspiration and hope to Rico on many levels. "On one level I feel we can bring the world together 'cause everyone likes cool t-shirts... and on another I figure if a beaver can get hot chicks, why can't I?" WONDERBOY. . . "Dooooo waa diddy, yadda, yadda yo," screams Wonderboy as he holds the microphone close to his mouth. Just then he is pelted by a tomatoe thrown from an irritated crowd member who is yelling, "Don't quit your day job idiot!" When Wonderboy isn't trying to sing with his band, or wondering around drunk in the streets of downtown Bloomington, Illinois, he is trying to catch Harry Beaver in another hilarious predicament. Wonderboy met Harry about 3 years ago in a bar down in Southern Mexico. After four hours of Mexican beer, a bottle of Tequila and a bar fight the two stumbled out the doors and ended up sleeping in a hay filled stall with two of Mexico's finest jack asses. The next morning Harry thought it would be a great idea for Wonderboy to illustrate some of his many adventures and present them to the world in the form of a new T-Shirt line. Wonderboy agreed and his quest began. Says Wonderboy, "When I found Rico in that dermatology clinic covered in blisters from drinking too much screen cleaning solvent, I new I had my guy." Rico wasn't afraid to try new things with his art, not to mention those two Russian girls he told me about in college. "Rico was the ying to my yang, the icing on my cake, the 6 to my 9. . .ok, well, maybe that's going a little too far, but you know what I mean," Wonderboy describes. Today, they sit and ponder. . . what would WE do if WE were HARRY??? Check back frequently and you're bound to find out! COMING SOON: Harry Beaver Bar & Pub - LIQUOR EVERYWHERE!
