| − | ==Dave Dees Bio==
| |
| − | Commercial artist, David Dees, with a family tree rooted in the deep southern states of Mississippi and Louisiana, was introduced to the world of art by watching along side the easel of his father's hobby of landscape and Civil War scene oil painting. After a brief run through in art school, Dees joined statf at an Atlanta, Georgia graphic studio creating images for magazine and newspaper advertisements. But, being an avid movie fan and with big dreams oi designing Hollywood movie poster art, headed west to Los Angeles in 1984. Setting up a freelance studio specializing in airbrush illustration for the entertainment industry, Dees developed an arsenal of acrylic air-brushing techniques from super-realism to wacky high energy cartooning. Illustrating video and DVD covers, toy packaging, movie promo store displays, and children's books, for the next 17 years Dees counted Paramount Studios, Warner Bros., Geflen Records, Hanna Barbera and Sesame Street Magazine as some of his favorite clients.

| − | In the 1990's as the world shifted to computers, Dees was surprised to find a fantastic new freedom painting digitally. By the late 90's however, dangerous LA was no longer the paradise it once was, and then came the surreal trauma of September 11, 2001. Gullible as most everyone else, Dees believed the official [[9-11]] story pushed by main-stream TV, but it was a tipping point, so taking a chance on a drastic change, he moved his Internet based illustration studio to Europe. Living safe in the heart of Scandinavian culture for the next ten years in exotic Sweden, he had the vantage point oi watching the economic and political problems of America from afar. While in Europe though, a true turning event happened, when in 2003 while studying close-up photos of the Pentagon crash, Dees suddenly woke up to the truth of [[9-11]]. Lifelong patriotism shaken, he now saw the arrogance, the lies, and the murderous criminal facade the American government truly was, the shock triggering a long introspective process of digging for info on the shadowy secret government some call ‘going down the rabbit hole‘, because it branches off, and goes as deep and as dark as you witling to confront. He studied, read, and listened, and soon was armed with a solid understanding of secret societies, [[zionist]] banking criminals, and the New World Order agenda. Dees had changed. Uncharacteristically, he raged and argued to anyone that would listen just how unknowingly controlled and spiritually enslaved we ail were. with a radical new activist fire in his eye, ‘sleeping sheeple' good friends were lost, but many new ‘awake activist friends‘ on the internet were made.

| − | Research reached a boiling point, and in 2006 Dees designed his first ever political illustration called ‘World War W‘. Named for George W. Bush, the art featured an orange planet earth being bombed in the middle east by green dollar signed weapons of war. He emailed the piece to Jeff Rense for possible publication on rense.com, and the day it landed on the front page of the top alternative news website for millions to view, an exciting new political activist art style was born. Using all the visual tricks he had learned from years in the trade, the seasoned artist began creating an endless tirade of political and social commentary illustrations that literally exploded onto the internet 9-11 Truth scene. With it's origins purely organic and emotionally-driven, Dees‘ art was noticed the world over as a stunning, often wild, form of geopolitical artistic expression which found humor in an insane world...while just as often warned of the cruel ‘silent weapons‘ and bloody hands of the genocidal, tyrannical elite. Appearing in countless alternative news documentaries, blogs, and websites, the ‘art missiles oi truth‘ circulated virally through the internet and today has gained a wide international audience.

| − | ''Uncensored Magazine'' named Dees ‘the most controversial artist in the world today‘, and radio talk show host and nuclear physicist, Dr. Bill Deagle, calls Dees the ‘Nikola Tesla of political art‘. Critics have written ‘David Dees is the Norman Rockwell for this new century‘, and many have pointed out the courage it takes to sign your name to art that exposes, defames and ridicules the most brutal police state control grid ideology this world has ever seen. Dees returned to America in 2012, now lives in a sunny part of Oregon, and continues working in political and book cover illustration.
