Check out a podcast interview with Monty “Ses” Espisito who will be creating a small series of various canvases that will pay tribute to the late, great Ronnie James Dio Tomorrow (6/20/15) at Dio Day 2015.
Born and raised in North Syracuse, NY Monty started painting interior walls in his parents home with images of Led Zeppelin. Eventually spilling onto the streets and bridges in the form of aresol art. This led to traveling and painting murals in NYC, Philadelphia, Arizona, Alabama, Maine, Mexico and Italy. He grew up listening to heavy metal music and studying album cover art. He’s a long time fan of Ronnie’s music and album cover art, and he considers it an honor to pay tribute to Dio with his art.
