A LISTEN So what is the magic wand, tariffs, energy independence, going back to the constitution and the gold standard. https://twitter.com/KobeissiLetter/status/1904210394849083650 1792: The U.S. Coinage Act was passed by Congress, establishing the United States Mint and authorizing the production of the U.S. dollar, a foundational moment for the nation's economy. it was a cornerstone for America's economy, setting up the United States Mint and greenlighting the production of the U.S. dollar as the nation's official currency. This wasn't just about making coins—it was about asserting economic independence from Britain and stabilizing a young country drowning in a mess of foreign currencies, state-issued money, and bartering. The Act, officially titled "An Act establishing a Mint, and regulating the Coins of the United States," pegged the dollar to a bimetallic standard—gold and silver—with specific weights: a dollar was defined as 371.25 grains of pure silver or 24.75 grains of pure gold, roughly matching the Spanish silver dollar's value, which was already widely used. It authorized coins like the silver dollar, half-dollar, and gold eagles ($10, $5, $2.50 denominations), plus smaller copper cents and half-cents. The Mint, set up in Philadelphia (then the capital), started churning out coins by 1793, with the first silver dollars appearing in 1794. This move was huge. Before 1792, the U.S. had no unified currency—think British pounds, French livres, and Spanish pieces of eight sloshing around with state banknotes that nobody trusted. The Articles of Confederation left Congress powerless to coin money eff...
One of President Donald Trump's many actions in his first three weeks included directing the US Treasury Department to stop minting new pennies. There's been a movement to get rid of the pennies of years, partly because, according to some estimates, the one-cent coin costs nearly four cents to produce, and the US Mint reported they lost $85.3 million last year making them. Former Director of the United States Mint, Philip Diehl, joined Dave Anthony to discuss why he's long been advocating for getting rid of the penny, Diehl explained how the change could impact the American economy. He also discussed why there's a case to get rid of the nickel and why coin and paper currencies will serve a purpose despite the popularity of crypto. We often must cut interviews short during the week, but we thought you might like to hear the full interview.

In Memory of my Father-in-Law, this episode was one of his favorites. It was first released in July of 2021. Despite the United States Mint not being established until 1792, the first American coin struck for circulation was actually designed in 1787 by none other than Benjamin Franklin. But why did it feature the words "Mind Your Business?" In this episode explore the coin known as the "Fugio Cent" and then quiz comedy writer Jimmy Mak!

Money is power. But who's on our money - or isn't - can be just as powerful. While Lady Liberty has graced American coins and dollars for most of our history, it wasn't until the 1970s that a real woman appeared on a circulating American coin. But that's about to change. Congress recently authorized the creation of twenty new quarters featuring American women from history. But how do we decide whose likeness gets engraved in our national story? And who makes these decisions? We'll follow the money to find out.

With the per capita sales volume of ketchup falling slightly over the last five years, the Heinz marketing team members knew they needed to collectively step-up big time. Knowing that remixing some played out CPG industry strategy wasn't going to work...Heinz turned to the United States Mint for inspiration. Thankfully, we aren't going to see more green ketchup again either! Instead, Heinz is remixing the decadelong “State Quarters Program” that was estimated to increase demand by nearly $3 billion. Dubbed Saucemerica, Heinz is releasing 50 limited-edition packets for each state. While the packets are filled with classics like ketchup, mustard, mayonnaise, ranch, BBQ and tartar sauce, the designs are each inspired by a particular state. You can get your hands on these limited-edition condiment packets at movie theaters, sports stadiums, and fast-food drive-thrus.

Tom welcomes back Petroleum Engineer and Analyst Michael Lynch to discuss the big movers in the silver market. He provides diagrams of how metals flow from the market to the retail level, and mentions how the United States Mint is legally required to meet the public's demand for gold and silver Eagles, though not other mint products. Michael covers the costs for producing Silver Eagles, as well as how the premiums have changed lately. He believes the Mint's production issue is due, in part, to a lack of available blanks from supplier mints such as Sunshine Mint, which have experienced labor shortages and production challenges. He believes that Blackrock's Ishares SLV Trust is being used to heavily influence the market, keeping everyone happy but the retail buyers. Michael suggests the Mint could solve its problems by bringing blank production in-house; this would give them more flexibility with production. He also suggests silver stackers consider selling ASE's and buying larger bars in order to minimize premiums and get more ounces.

The concept of the "lucky penny" is a well-known superstition that has been passed down for generations. The belief that finding a penny brings good luck is a prevalent belief in many cultures. It is interesting to explore the origins of this superstition and how it became so ingrained in our culture. The history of the penny can be traced back to ancient times when coins were often used for religious purposes. People believed that placing coins in graves, it would ensure safe passage to the afterlife. This practice continued through the Middle Ages when people would bury coins in the foundations of buildings for good luck. This is where the belief that coins bring good luck originates. The term "lucky penny" can be traced back to the early 20th century when the penny was first introduced in the United States. At that time, the penny was considered a valuable coin, and finding one was a stroke of good fortune. The idea that a penny could bring good luck became popular, and people started carrying them for good luck. During World War II, the United States Mint produced steel pennies because copper was needed for the war effort. These pennies were unpopular because they were easily mistaken for dimes and were often rejected by vending machines. The government issued a statement saying that finding a copper penny was a sign of good luck, and this helped to boost the popularity of the lucky penny superstition. The lucky penny superstition has continued to thrive in modern times. Many people still believe that finding a penny brings good luck, and some even carry one with them at all times. The superstition has also been used in popular culture, with references to the lucky penny appearing in movies, books, and television shows. In conclusion, the superstition of the lucky penny has a long history, dating back to ancient times when coins were used for religious purposes. The popularity of the penny as a lucky charm can be traced back to the early 20th century when the penny was first introduced in the United States. The belief in the lucky penny continues to this day and has become an ingrained part of our culture. Whether it is a real source of good luck or not, the idea of the lucky penny is a comforting one that brings hope and positivity to those who believe in it. www.chucktuck.com --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/chucktuck/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/chucktuck/support

In today's episode of the CoinWeek Podcast, I talk to Joe Menna, Chief Engraver of the United States Mint.Joe has devoted practically his whole life to art and now, as the main art director at the Mint, he gets to bring that lifetime of thought and devotion to bear on a task that is both an exciting personal opportunity and something bigger than himself: the creation of a national coinage that we can all be proud of. A task that Joe takes very much to heart.To a collector, there is much to be learned here about recent Mint history, how the Mint works behind the scenes, and what being the Chief Engraver... a position officially revived after almost 40 years... entails in the 21st century.To an artist, there's a lot that can be gleaned from Joe's open and earnest discussion about his experiences as both a student and a professional artist - as well as his thoughts and feelings on art itself. From José Luis García-López to Van Gogh, he's not afraid to mix the low and the high, the popular and the fine. We talk about all this and more, next, on the CoinWeek Podcast!***The CoinWeek Podcast is brought to you by PCGS. New PCGS Market Report is out now.

The Jefferson nickel has been the five-cent coin struck by the United States Mint since 1938, when it replaced the Buffalo nickel. From 1938 until 2004, the copper-nickel coin's obverse featured a profile depiction of founding father and third U.S. President Thomas Jefferson by artist Felix Schlag; the obverse design used in 2005 was also in profile, though by Joe Fitzgerald. Since 2006 Jefferson's portrayal, newly designed by Jamie Franki, faces forward. The coin's reverse is still the Schlag original, although in 2004 and 2005 the piece bore commemorative designs.

Nellie Tayloe Ross, the First Woman Governor of Wyoming A 1920s icon and beloved by her constituents, Notorious NTR, as I've called her for years but no one else seems to pick up, was a badass Wyoming Woman. She was elected to her late husband's position as Governor after his untimely death and went on to have her own successful career with an appointment to the United States Mint. Tales are told of her socialite status and tough Wyoming exterior and that's why we're focusing our 3D glasses on her in today's glimpse into history.

In this bonus episode, Rohan Grey speaks with Philip Diehl about #MintTheCoin in the wake of this season's debt limit showdown. Director of the United States Mint under President Bill Clinton from 1994 to 2000, Diehl is best known today as the person most responsible for 31 U.S. Code 5112(k). The law permits the Treasury Secretary to “mint and issue platinum bullion coins and proof platinum coins in accordance with such specifications, designs, varieties, quantities, denominations, and inscriptions as the Secretary, in the Secretary's discretion, may prescribe from time to time.” This clause charts a completely constitutional path to avert recurrent debt crises and furnishes a ready framework for a new kind of radical financial literacy. No wonder why much ink has been spilled and many hands have been wrung trying to explain away or dismiss its radical implications. Grey's conversation with Diehl explores the history of the platinum coin, offering a fascinating and unprecedented behind-the-scenes glimpse of life in the U.S. Mint.Visit our Patreon page here: https://www.patreon.com/MoLsuperstructureMusic by Nahneen Kula: www.nahneenkula.com

Constituting America's 90 Day Study of the United States Constitution
In 1873 the United States Mint struck the first “Trade Dollars” based on a design by William Barber. The trade dollars were never designed to be used domestically but only in international trade, especially targeting the Chinese market where the Mexican Peso was favored. This new Trade Dollar would hopefully allow American merchants to successfully compete with other countries' trade dollars being used in Asia at the time. The trade dollar coin composed of 90% silver and 10% copper and weighed 27.22 grams. On the front of the coin is a female figure representing Lady Liberty, seated on bales of...Article Link

During the third night of the Democratic National Convention, Democrats stuck to the theme of unity and focused on gun violence, climate change and immigration. Speakers last night included former FLOTUS and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, former President Barack Obama and Senator Kamala Harris who accepted the party's nomination for Vice President. FOX News Radio's National Correspondent Jared Halpern and FOX News Radio Political Analyst Josh Kraushaar recap last night with Rep. Debbie Dingell (D-MI) and what she expects from Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden's speech tonight. The coronavirus pandemic is causing a national coin shortage. That means there are not enough pennies, nickels, dimes or quarters in circulation. Some businesses are being forced to require exact change or payments by credit or debit card. Director of the United States Mint, David J. Ryder discusses why the U.S. is seeing a coin shortage, how Americans can help with this issue and whether the U.S. will be a cashless society in the near future. Plus, commentary by Fox News legal analyst Gregg Jarrett Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
Listener questions about the current coin shortage lead us to today’s guest, Philip Diehl 35th Director of the United States Mint, former Chief of Staff of the U.S. Treasury Secretary and current President of U.S. Money Reserve. He helps us understand the reasons for the current shortage and offers insights into how U.S. coin demand and production are managed. In the second half of the podcast, we discuss why owning precious metals, either physical or paper investments, should be considered as part of your portfolio and how economic conditions impact their suitability. Program Length: 35 minutes
One of the unexpected side effects of the coronavirus pandemic has been a lack of coins circulating around the economy. Pocket change is at a premium as many businesses remain closed and the United States Mint operates at limited capacity. This development lends itself to a related discussion: the long-overdue elimination of the one-cent coin, which loses tens of millions of dollars for the Treasury each year, and the broader "war on cash."
With gold and other precious metals being discovered in the south, 3 new branch mints are born, one of there being Charlotte, NC. On our first of 3 episodes in this season, we will bring you the rich stories of this short-lived mint. Written and edited by Larry Smith Hosted by Larry Smith and Parker Williams.

I chat with him about huge increase in the demand for gold that he saw during the Great Recession when he was in charge of the mint, why gold has perceived value rather than intrinsic value, the need for bitcoin and a money not controlled by government, and what regulation might look like in bitcoin’s future, according to his insider perspective.

On this episode of Bayfield County Wild, as Co-hosts Nancy Christopher and Mary Motiff, director of Bayfield County Tourism, speak with Chad Abel, Division Administrator of Natural Resources for the Red Cliff Band of Lake Superior Chippewa. They discuss the first tribal national park in the country, located at Frog Bay, as well as area events in the month of March. Legendary Waters Resort & Casino Legendary Waters is one of the most appropriately-named destinations you can find. Owned and operated by the Red Cliff band of Lake Superior Chippewa, the entire experience and view for visitors is truly “legendary.” Located on the shores of Lake Superior in Red Cliff, this hotel offers 47 deluxe rooms and premiere suites, each with a Lake Superior and Apostle Islands view. Even the casino has a view! This is a rarity, as most casinos in the United States don’t even have windows. The annual Pow Wow in Red Cliff features drummers, singers and dancers along with vendors selling traditional food and arts & crafts. Check travelbayfieldcounty.com for future dates, and visit the Native American Tourism of Wisconsin website (NATOW) for details on proper pow wow etiquette. New Apostle Islands Coin Over the last few years, the United States Mint has been producing quarters that highlight different national parks. It’s exciting to announce that the Apostle Islands National Lakeshore is being honored with such a coin! There will be a forum for coin collectors at the Northern Great Lakes Visitors Center in Ashland on Tuesday evening, April 10th and the official quarter launch and coin exchange at Legendary Waters Resort on Wednesday morning, April 11th. Further information can be found at travelbayfieldcounty.com. Frog Bay Tribal National Park Chad Abel shares his involvement with the first tribal national park in the country, Frog Bay Tribal National Park. Frog Bay is a pristine, undeveloped area on the Red Cliff Chippewa reservation. Though not affiliated with the National Park Service, the tribal national park title refers to the sovereign nation of the Red Cliff Band of Chippewa. This designation protects it from future development and provides public access to a portion of the park. Located a few miles from Legendary Waters Resort & Casino on Frog Bay in Lake Superior, the park opened in 2012. Originally just a 90-acre parcel, it grew last year when another 87-acre parcel was acquired (the only remaining private property in Frog Bay), along with 80 acres that Bayfield County was using for timber management. In total, Frog Bay Tribal National Park is now approximately 300 acres with two miles of walking trails. Balancing Tourism and Protection With so much natural beauty in Bayfield County, it is a big responsibility to protect. Mary explains that there are many laws in place for the protection of Bayfield County’s natural resources, and that Bayfield County Tourism balances nature and tourism every day. Bayfield County is aware that its natural resources draw people from all over the world, and local residents want to continue to protect these assets.

Edmund Moy is the son of a Chinese immigrant who grew up working in his father’s restaurant doing everything from washing dishes to the bookkeeping. As a young boy working the cash register at the restaurant, he would go through the change drawer looking for unique coins. This soon turned into a hobby and 40 years later he would be appointed the 38th and last Director of the United States Mint. (As of this recording the position remains vacant) Ed got his start working for the George W. Bush campaign and helped advise the transition. He was later asked to work at the White House as a Senior Staffer before settling into his role as Director of the Mint which he held from 2006 until 2011.

Ed Moy was director of the United States Mint from 2006-2011, at which time he had more than a few opportunities to pay a visit to the United States bullion Depository at Fort Knox, a super secure installation that has fed into hundreds of conspiracy theories surrounding the Fed and America's recall of gold bullion in the 1930s. We ask Ed a series a questions about his visits to the facility and what it is like seeing gold on such a massive scale. We also wonder whether our current President might himself one day take a trip to see the America's gold holdings for himself. * * * This CoinWeek podcast is brought to you by PCGS.

Today is September 27th, 2017 and our guests this week are: Mike Shuster from the great war project blog, Mayor Ann Roth from the 100 Cities / 100 Memorials project in Swanton, Ohio And Christy Leskovar, author of One Night in a Bad Inn and Finding the Bad Inn WW1 Centennial News is brought to you by the U.S. World War I Centennial Commission and the Pritzker Military Museum and Library. I’m Theo Mayer - the Chief Technologist for the Commission and your host. Welcome to the show. World War One THEN 100 Year Ago This Week [MUSIC TRANSITION] We’ve gone back in time 100 years to explore the war that changed the world! It’s the last week of September 1917, let’s take a look at what happened this month: The pages of the Official Bulletin are overflowing with articles about food, the food administration, and their impact on the war effort, with articles about food appearing every day this month. Here are a few of note: [SOUND EFFECT] Dateline: September 12th, 1917 Headline: Government not to seize food supplies held in homes There is no truth in a widely circulated statement that the Government expects to take food supplies from any family. Both the Food Administration and the Department of Agriculture join in a statement to counteract, what seems to be deliberate propaganda to the effect that the Government intends to take from every family all canned goods put up, in excess of 100 quarts. TM - Apparently this was only one of many variations of rumors about the government seizing food [SOUND EFFECT] Dateline: September 15th, 1917 Headline: Government licenses for manufacturers, refiners and importers of sugar, sirups, and molasses required From time to time, whenever the President shall find it essential to license the importation, manufacture, storage, mining or distribution of any necessaries… The president is authorized to issue such licenses and to prescribe regulations of the issuance of licenses. [SOUND EFFECT] Dateline: September 17th, 1917 Headline: Slogan “food will win war--don’t waste it” emblazoned on huge signs throughout country Through the cooperation of advertising companies, the Treasury Department, municipal authorities and electric-light companies, the US Food Administration is, without cost, putting on a national outdoor advertising campaign that is probably the biggest thing of the sort ever undertaken. The slogan “Food will win the war -- don't waste it” is being emblazoned in every large city in the country on immense signs on public buildings. These signs are uniform in general design, in paint for daytime display and illuminated by electric light for night. [SOUND EFFECT] Dateline: September 20th, 1917 Headline: American people can have full diet and still supply pressing needs of allies The supplies in the world’s larder for the next twelve months are now known. They are too short to support our allies unless every man, woman and child enters National service by conserving food and supporting the Food Administration [SOUND EFFECT] Dateline: September 20th, 1917 Headline: Big european demand upon america for meat will continue after war The immediate problem is to furnish increased meat supplies to the allies to maintain them during the war… the impact of european demand upon our animal products will be maintained for a long period of years after peace. We must undertake to meet the demand not only during the war, so as to enable our allies to continue to fight, but we must be prepared to meet the demand after the war. TM: So food is a big topic of national discussion during the month of September 100 years ago this week. Also in the news, casualty reports start to trickle into the Bulletin this month. Only a few thousand American soldiers have made it to Europe, and their primary tasks is training, preparing, training and preparing. Despite their small numbers and their relative distance from the front, war is war and casualties start to become an ever more frequent occurrence. Soldiers get killed during a german air raid on a hospital, others in an air raid on an encampment; two aviators die in a mid-air collision during training while a third dies of an undisclosed accident; others die from meningitis or heart disease. Though tragic, these deaths are just a glimpse of what’s to come: life in the trenches, artillery fire, bombings, gas and the 1918 flu epidemic are challenges yet to come. - Go to our website to catch up on all the stories from 100 years ago this month. You can read the full daily issues of the Official Bulletin the government’s war gazette published at the order of President Wilson as the government’s voice of the war - you will find daily issues that we re-publish on the centennial anniversary of their original publish date at ww1cc.org/bulletin. [SOUND EFFECT] Great War Project Outside of the Official Bulletin, which is essentially the government’s propaganda machine - other reports appear of a continuing and steady rise of anti-war sentiment. We are joined by Mike shuster, former NPR correspondent and curator for the Great War Project blog, to tell us more about the on-going and perhaps ever more active anti-war movement in the US. Welcome, Mike! [MIKE SHUSTER] Thank you Mike. That was Mike Shuster from the Great War Project blog with a look at the anti-war sentiment of some Americans 100 years ago this month.

Reflecting this, On September 24th 1917, composer Maceo Pinkard publishes “Those Draftin’ Blues”, a sorrowful tune with a message that resonates with many across the country .

Our pick of the week is from Newport, Rhode Island. Here is the story… In 1917, when America declared war on Germany, Bernardo Cardines (cardeens) was a tailor living peacefully in Newport, RI. Cardines was an immigrant from Venafro in Italy, who emigrated alone to America in 1909 at the tender age of only fourteen. Cardines, like many American immigrants, registered for the draft and went on to serve with the 78th Division in the American Expeditionary Forces. He fought at St. Mihiel and was killed in action during a raid on German positions on September of 1918. On month, on Friday, September 29, the Rhode Island World War One Centennial Commission will rededicate the Bernardo Cardines Memorial Baseball Field. The field is one of the oldest baseball fields in the U.S. and was originally dedicated in September of 1936, in memory of Private Cardines. The re-dedication is free to the public and will include a unique commemorative event: namely - an Army-Navy baseball game that will be played by students from the U.S. Naval War College, and they are going to play the game, dressed in period baseball uniforms. That sounds like great fun! Learn more about the ceremony and Private Cardines by following the link in the podcast notes. link:http://www.worldwar1centennial.org/index.php/commemorate/event-map-system/eventdetail/47181/rededication-of-bernardo-cardines-memorial-field.html http://ww1cc.org/events https://patch.com/rhode-island/newport/private-bernardo-cardines [SOUND EFFECT] Speaking WW1 And now for our feature “Speaking World War 1 - Where we explore today’s words & phrases that are rooted in a century ago --- This week the word is not really a word, but an abbreviation that you would not have guessed was birthed during WW1… and that phrase is… “OMG” One hundred years ago this month, on September 9th, 1917, a retired admiral of the British navy, Lord Fisher, fired off a letter to Winston Churchill. The two men often wrote to one another about various naval aspects of the ongoing war, and in this letter --- on this day --- he wrote: My dear sir --- I hear that a new order of Knighthood is on the tapis–O.M.G. (Oh! My God!)–Shower it on the Admiralty!!” We are not really sure what he was prattling about - but on that day he did coin the term. And while you may gave always believed that OMG was a texting term from a california 18 year old mall rat - The first ever documented use of term is between two english gentlemen during world war I - OMG-- That is sooo cray cray - and it’s also this week’s word for Speaking World War One! We have a link for you to the article where we found this story in the podcast notes. link: https://www.wsj.com/article_email/omg-it-started-in-1917-with-a-letter-to-churchill-1504882081-lMyQjAxMTA3OTE4MDAxNzA3Wj/ http://today-in-wwi.tumblr.com/post/165172940448/first-use-of-omg 100 Cities/100 Memorials [SOUND EFFECT] This was a big week for the 100 Cities / 100 Memorials program. On Wednesday September 27th, the US World War One Centennial Commission and the Pritzker Military Museum & Library announced the First 50 official “WWI Centennial Memorials” That is only half of them - because every since the April 6th centennial of the the US declaration of war, the awareness, interest and focus on local WWI memorials around the country has really blossomed.

The Navy has announced plans to survey the wreck of the WWI U.S. Navy cruiser San Diego, on which six American Sailors lost their lives, when she sank as a result of enemy action off the coast of New York on July 19, 1918. The survey's objective is to assess the condition of the wreck site and determine if the ship --- the only major warship lost by the United States, was sunk as a result of a German submarine-launched torpedo or a mine. Ultimately, that data gathered will help inform the management of the sunken craft, which lies only a few miles south of Long Island. The announcement comes just weeks after the 99th anniversary of the sinking, and the survey, which was planned for Sept. 11-15, is timed to allow researchers to conduct a thorough examination of the site and prepare, then release, their findings around the date of the 100th anniversary. Underwater archaeology is always so cool!!

You’ll find all this in his poem "O, Little David, Play on Your Harp": the Armenian Genocide, Russian pogroms, the Belgian atrocities, the deadly prejudice against African Americans.

As a private citizen, Diehl has sat on the boards of the Industry Council for Tangible Assets, the Coalition for Equitable Regulation and Taxation, and the Gold and Silver Political Action Committee. His position on precious metals "investing" is nuanced but in favor of it.

Rhett Jeppson is the Principal Deputy Director of the United States Mint, a position he has held since January 2015. President Barack Obama nominated Jeppson to the position of Mint Director in July of that year, but partisan politics in the United States Senate has held up the nomination. In the interim, Jeppson has filled the role of Mint Director without the benefit of the formal title. The United States Mint has gone without a Mint Director since Edmund C. Moy vacated the position in January 2011. In this episode of the CoinWeek Podcast, we sit down with Rhett to discuss his work at the Mint, the future of coinage, the Mint's numismatic division, and what he's valued most from his experience working with the men and women, who make our nation's coinage. We also get a question in about the federal gold reserves at Fort Knox! This episode of the CoinWeek Podcast is brought to you by PCGS. The standard in the rare coin grading industry.

Richard T Scott is a painter, writer, and coin designer for the United States Mint living in the Hudson Valley. His paintings are in museum collections in North America and Europe. One of his coin designs commemorating Fort Moultrie will be on the new quarter released into circulation this November. Richard is represented by Paul Booth Gallery in New York City and Galerie L'Oeil du Prince in Paris. Full shownotes: http://yourcreativepush.com/richardtscott In this episode, Richard discusses: -How he got involved with the United States Mint and his first quarter that is going to be minted of Fort Moultrie. -How paintings do not stand the test of time, but coins and sculptures do. -An important lesson he learned from his friend in high school about the difference between natural talent and hard work. -How JMW Turner was inspired by Claude Lorrain. -Things that have held him back during his art career, such as financial strain and crippling doubt. -The cloud that hung over his head for a long time, where he didn’t believe he could actually be successful as a professional artist, despite his drive to be the best painter he could be. -The powerful idea of collaborative competition, and the way that he uses it with Adam Miller. -A powerful story about the chance he took in reaching out to Odd Nerdrum and the journey that it took him on. -One of his best moments, happening at the moment, having a piece accepted into the Georgia Museum of Art. -What art and creativity brings to his life. -Why Rembrandt is one of his greatest influences. -Some of the things he has coming up at this very exciting time in his career. Richard's Final Push will inspire you to go for your dreams… all you need is persistence, passion, and honesty. Quotes: “2000 years from now, it might be the case that none of my paintings will be around, but these coins will.” “This idea that you’re born with genius or talent and that’s what defines whether or not you succeed at something… I don’t think that’s true. I think it’s about your passion.” “Even though I’ve always been driven to be the best painter I could be, I never believed that I could actually be successful at it.” “What I keep telling myself is to be optimistic, to be realistic, and to be honest with myself about my strengths and especially my weaknesses.” “I would rather win a silver medal knowing that I had reached my greatest potential instead of winning a gold medal when my competition hadn’t even reached theirs.” “So I had gone from thinking I had cancer, my marriage is falling apart, feeding myself out of a garden, foraging, and having ten cents to my name… and suddenly I had sold eleven paintings within two weeks.” “At any moment, anything can happen that might seem so incredibly small. And if you’re there and you’re ready and you’re prepared and you’re on your game, it could turn into something that you can’t even imagine. “For me, art is the way that I understand the world. It’s the way that I digest life.” Links mentioned: TED Talk with Theo Jansen "Fourth Wall" at Paul Booth Gallery Connect with Richard: Website / Facebook / Instagram / Twitter
