forino: So, for one of your rugs, did you actually make a sheep eat skittles.

elp: Haha. No. I like that. That was kind of the inspiration. I don’t have any ties, or family or whatever but… I don’t know if you’ve seen in England or Scotland, they have these sheeps they paint? Yeah those are very specific colors.

forino: Just for tourists or something?

elp: I know they’ll spray just a little bit to keep track of them, but then they take it further and do the full patterns. Which I just thought was fucked up.

forino: I’ve always wanted to graffiti a sheep. Tag it.

elp: Exactly. That’ll be the next collection.
