There's a satisfaction in seeing something happen over time.
When I see a salt and pepper standing next to a bottle of ketchup, to me that's obviously a parent and two children, you know? Isn't it for everybody?
The drawings need to be strong enough to stand alone, and not just work as part of a sequence.
I'm a minimalist when it comes to design.
I guess the anthropomorphising is something I've done all my life.
I'm always projecting onto objects like they're alive in some way.
