I present to you another entry in the 'Occasional Acid Flashback' series! My old college roommate Joe suggested I tackle Mandy Patinkin's likeness years ago and the idea has stayed in my head since. There's something about a life consuming obsession with a noble kind of revenge that resonates with me to this day. There's this fascinating dichotomy in his character between honor and integrity and his obsessive vengeance and singular motivation to find the six fingered man. Some days he's good humored, charismatic and charming and other days he turns to bouts of heavy drinking and despair. It is this duality that makes him so complex and relatable. I recognize parts of Inigo in myself and most of the people I get to know on a personal level. The world seems extremely chaotic on this day in 2025 and I've inwardly wondered what art I should be making at this moment in history. And while I currently juggle a number of projects I'm passionately working on I will settle for a warm smile and a nostalgic memories from seeing the Princess Bride for the first time.

The printing on this one is NEXT level. I am in a fortunate position to not have to cut any corners in production. This one is 12 screens with a spot varnish on gold paper stock. There's multiple layering of illustrated Spanish tiling and undulating psychedelic patterning that is very pleasing to look at. I've been working for 20 plus years with the medium of screen printing and view the printing here as a high point.
