What type of tools or media do you use?

I paint with acrylic on canvas with brushes...very hands on!! ha Traditional painting. My paintings are quite large...some 6ft. Good for gallery shows or hanging in your house. But I am starting to use photoshop in some of my newer projects...cause it's faster and doesn't take up as much space as a painting. I thought it would be very difficult to paint in photoshop...but I know now that if you have fine art training... it isn't as tourcherous. The basics of painting and color are still there. I am not so scared of photoshop anymore!! ha

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

I would love to work anywhere that had a creative and fun work environment. Where the people there would get as excited about great character designs as I do. And if the characters were made into real life 3d and could walk and talk....even better! ha

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

I think the best character designers out there are the ones who are just slowly breaking into the field. I have seen so many great artists...but I can't remember their names, only what their work looks like. And so many different styles too. That's great. They will be the top character designers soon.

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

Munch from Munch's oddysee....is an all time favourite. I was blown away when i saw that character. Everything from his voice to his stance to his overall design...just perfect.

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

Robots are my favourite to draw. Probably cause they were the first real characters that i was exposed to that had a WOW effect on me as a kid!!! I was so fascinated by them and their mechanisms.

What inspired you to become an Artist?

My imagination.

What are some of your favorite website links that would be relevant to this Blog?

Don't know of any off hand.
