Lisa Frank 1 | Gumballs and Interplanetary Ice Cream Cones
ILL REPUTE! with Sovereign Syre & Ela Darling - A podcast by Sovereign Syre and Ela Darling
Today we’re discussing Lisa Frank, the artist behind the eponymous brand Lisa Frank Inc. If you were alive in the 80s and 90s, the psychedelic, neon airbrushed designs of unicorns and teddy bears and dolphins had a chokehold on your childhood. From stickers to binders to pencil cases, Lisa Frank merchandise was what divided the cool from the broke. Lisa Frank was one of the first fine artists to gear her designs toward children rather than wealthy art collectors. And her gamble paid off big, at the peak of her popularity, Lisa Frank Inc was taking in more than $150 million dollars a year.
