I used to pick up lettering jobs when I was first starting in the business like in between if I couldn't get other work.

I had been working at home at the time and was looking to find a studio space somewhere outside of my apartment. I thought that might be good for me in terms of having a little bit more discipline with my work habits.

Continuity was the kind of place where anybody who came into the city from out of town to deliver some work could come over and hang out and we'd go down and have a few drinks.

Some people just have a natural gift and some people really have to work at it and I'm more of the second kind. I always had to grind it out, where from him it just flowed.

If you're just sitting around home it's just too easy to sit around and smoke pot all day and never get anything done.
