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

And within the world that you've created, the physics of that world have to remain constant; they can't be amorphous and changing.

And that, to me, is the main attraction to comics. It's an avenue to say what you want to say

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

So I look at a lot of stuff now that I did and some of it looks tame to me, but my interest in terms of what I want to say with it is a little different

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

But there's still an avenue for smaller comics and personal expression
