Thanks so much. I'd chock that up to a mix of luck, the influence of watching my dad run his own successful small business since I was born, and all of the business books I read on my own throughout college.

Shrubs are super flat and boring, rocks get mushy and formless, perspective is a bit off on the path, darks are too black, etc.

95% is digital these days. My work takes anywhere from 10-30 hours to complete one of the finished pieces, depending on complexity and how efficient I am. That time is always broken up into many, many smaller pieces.

I do my best. :) Hope they're inspired! Give 'em plenty of art supplies!

Exactly this. As an artist, I constantly have people stumble across my recent work and exclaim how much they like it. That's awesome! It makes me feel so good. But they see that without the context of the years that came before it. The

Absolutely. One of my greatest fears around the time I was beginning to take this seriously was that I simply wasn't creative enough. I didn't know what to paint. But I found that as both my technical abilities expanded, I was als

I like to imagine that many upper-middle class folks enjoy the fantasy of a "simpler," lower class existence. Likewise, I suspect many who benefit from the system dream of seeing that same system die. Neither will likely ever happ

I'd love for the iPad to be a great digital creation tool. I really would. But as it stands, it's horrible. It's laggy, lacks pressure sensitivity, and the apps are clunky at best. Here's to hoping there's a push fr
