GREAT, HOW DID YOU GET INTO ART AND IS THERE A STYLE YOU’RE MORE DRAWN TO?
My dad is an artist. Most of our time spent together when i was a child was spent drawing and painting. He taught me almost everything I know! As far as my preference of artform, i think he and i differ a lot, haha. I'm typically drawn to ero guro and art nouveau.
DO YOU HAVE ANY LINKS TO YOUR ART YOU WOULD LIKE TO SHARE?
Instagram : here
ARE THERE ANY MATERIALS THAT YOU USE REGULARLY FOR YOUR ART OR ARE ‘MUST HAVES?’
Coffee, always. And good music
DO YOU HAVE ANY FAVORITE ARTISTS OR ART PIECES?
My favorite big guys are Takato Yamamoto, Salvador Dali, Alphonse Mucha, Leonardo da Vinci, Micheal Hussar and Emil Melmoth.
DO YOU HAVE ANY CONCERNS OR WORRIES ABOUT SHARING YOUR ART WITH THE WORLD OR MAKING IT YOUR CAREER?
Always, but you can't live in fear of criticism or failure. Nothing will stop me from creating. Ever.
IS THERE ANYTHING YOU WOULD SAY HAS SHAPED YOUR ART THROUGH THE YEARS?
Many things. People, my own personal growth, failure. I feel like living shapes your art just like it shapes you.
