The History of Krink + Interview
onlyMarkers Interview: KRINK
Many great things this days, ?
I meet some close friends from S?o Paulo who i miss a lot, i paint a little, i have the luck to meet and talk with BLU at The influencers, very nice and smart people and finally i have my own DIY ?stealth ink? working ?
Too much things and no time to write here. Sorry.
Well, here we go with our first interview, KR aka KRINK aka Craig Costello, don?t need an introduction, but if somebody don?t know him i?ll introduce him in few words. KR is an independent manufacturer of markers and inks. Based in the city of NY where he produce his hi quality and very nice look products. In fact is a cult hero in the marker scene and have many rip off brands in both sides of the atlantic. The products are expensive, but you?re buying something more than a marker ?
Let?s go ?
I see in internet a picture of an old green plastic bottle with a KRINK label handwrited,
how many bottles like this you sell before the creation of the KRINK branding?
The bottle you mentioned was never for sale. I would give ink to friends and put a sticker on the bottle or write a tag on it.
I did not start making Krink to sell, I made it to use it and write. It was only much later that I decided to start selling it. I was making Krink, catching drippy tags, etc? for about 8 years before I sold the first bottle. Today so many people want to sell things to ?cultures?. They start a business, but have no history, it?s very strange sometimes, but the almighty dollar (or Euro) rules.
How many people are involved on KRINK right now?
Not many. We are very very small, and we are making moves daily.
