What are you favorite things to draw/paint?
ReplyDelete--- Characters. Could be anything. Anything that strikes me. Like this morning I was just lying in bed and I had this sudden urge to draw an "angry chicken". That happens a lot so I have tons of drawings and graphic documents filled with these things.
What is your dream assignment?
--- To have some big wig call me up and say, 'We love your work, are you available to redesign the Coca-Cola logo?'
Are you an expert in a topic or have a passion for something outside of art?
--- I'm an expert at reading people. I can read a person like a book in the first five seconds I meet them. Can be scary at times. Quite possibly why I live alone.

ReplyDeleteHi Doug - thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteYou might consider creating two portfolios on your site - one for your branding/logo work and one for your illustration.
Good luck with your goals as an illustrator.
