can't say, i didn't go to an art school. though i wish i did. i think at this point in my life it would be a benefit to me because i know what i want to do

questions mostly. but honestly i love getting anonymous messages sometimes. it's just when somebody gives me info about their life and idk what to do about it i feel bad

that's awesome! I love being an inspiration. you'll quickly surpass me in knowledge and realize i just sound like i know what i'm talking about lol

idk who that is

it sucks, that's all i can say really

that potentially, you are putting a lot of effort into being a copyist and not an artist yourself. its your time you are wasting though

horses, hippos, more kinds of dinosaurs and permian synapsids

i think social media has positive and negative aspects. i mean in general the internet does. we have information and potential community at our fingertips, but also we have so many opportunities for distraction. i'm not immune

no idea what this means

is this like a how tough are ya kind of question

the original motivator for me to focus on art as a kid was comics. i met joe kubert when i was 6 or so and i felt like because i told him i wanted to be a comics artist like him i had to dedicate myself to comics. i drew lots of them as a kid but it trailed off towards the end of highschool as my interests changed. i've described my art life as being "conveniently adjacent to comics" but i don't think i have what it takes

i've got 3 or 4 faves: 1) fresh kale, fried egg and coffee. 2) plain old bagel and coffee 3) avocado toast and coffee 4) huevos rancheros... and coffee. in wintertime, oatmeal with raisins, bananas or dried fruit is the go to

i am glad, i hope you are having a fun time painting

no, unless the drawing is explicitly pornographic. i think im more often sitting around vaguely erotic art than full on pornography. i'm splitting hairs but it's a matter of purpose. generally i am making an art work not a means to an end

i have said that sometimes i am a hypocrite
