What type of tools or media do you use?

I experiment in all different media.

Where is the place you would like to work or be an Intern if you had a choice?

As long as I can design for a living, I have no preference where I work as
long as the environment is inspiring.

Who do you think are the top character designers out there?

Oh, so many. Gerald Scarfe is just awesome! Jack Potter has beautiful
simplicity. Craig Frazier for his great concepts! They're not exactly
character designers, but among my inspirations.

What are some of your favorite character designs which you have seen?

Some of the first character designs to really catch my eye were
embarrassingly simple. I think I carry that simplicity into my designs to
this day. My initial inspirations are mascots. Mario, Sonic, and Bonk.
Sprites! Simplicity has always been of interest to be because of the nature
of early video game design.

What is your most favorite subject to draw? And why?

Faces. I could draw faces until the end of time. There is noting more
rewarding than finding a unique ensemble of features that tell you something
personal.

What inspired you to become an Artist?

The insatiable desire to create. My mind has always been an obsessive
creating machine. When I'm not drawing, I'm thinking about my next drawing.
