To me, the technique was almost irrelevant; it was what was coming across.

If you're going to establish a certain level of unreality than you have to deal with it

I want to say 90% of stuff out there is just crap that got made. The main point is that it got produced.

I wanted to learn how to paint rather than just doing black-and-white work

So cartooning, for me, is an honorable thing. It's pushing the envelope. It's the truth of something through exaggeration

To me, that's one of the things that I love about doing this stuff. One day I can work on this piece in watercolor, and then work on something else on the computer, or work on something else that's a completely different approach

After that I jumped, especially being in art school, to the illustrators.
