The first one's there already? Why yes, it is. I hope you've been anticipating this as much as I have... And before we start, I would like to thank Dwannyfor taking the time to put up with me and my slight scatterbrained-ness, and all those I've pestered with pms. ^^'

 

So without any further ado, here's the interview! :happydance:

 

1. When and why did you start drawing?

 

I really started drawing when I was three, drawing pirates, dinosaurs and the like.

After a while, I realised that people liked what I drew and loved seeing me improve.

And now, quite some time later, I still find that that is my main motivation.

 

2. Which of your own works do you like best and why?

 

Although i like the idea and humor in my Ta-Koro School drawing, I think my favorite work is probably The creation of Tahu, a spoof on the 16th chapel painting.

There's just a certain feeling of calm, serious absurdity that I love.

I'm also rather proud of the positions, and I think they came out nicely.

 

3. Describe your art style with 5 words

 

Smooth, curvy graphite pencil lines.

 

4. In terms of art history, which one is your favourite period?

 

Renaissance, for sure.

so much was being discovered, and culture on the whole sort of came loose from the church and religion.

And I cannot deny that Da Vinci is one of my favorite artists.

 

5. Do you have a favourite quote? Could be by anyone. ^^

 

The difference between stupidity and genius is that genius has its limits. -Albert Einstein

 

6. What is the first thing you do after finishing a piece of Art?

 

I inspect it. Then I correct it. Repeat process untell satisfied.

 

7. What rhymes best with “jester”?

 

Investor.

 

8. What's your biggest inspiration?

 

Oh dear. whenever someone asks me that, this image pops into my head of me opening a large chest, picking up a book, blowing of the dust and revealing the words: 1001 great art idea's.

The truth is much more complicated: I have no idea what inspires me.

I have a slight hunch that aliens are feeding information into my brain.

 

9. Do you prefer making full drawings or quick, small doodles?

 

Small doodles may be fun to make, but the satisfaction of finishing a full drawing is too great for words. Also, it gives me something to do, so i'm not complaining.

 

10. Would you rather be a Toa or a Makuta?

 

I would say Makuta, since they make much better characters.

Except Icarax. He was stupid.

 

11. IF you have any plans for your BZPower future, what would they look like?

 

I would enjoy doing some more writing, just to take a break from doodling constantly.

I also would like to become a premier member, because:

a: I would be supporting the BZPower community, and

b:i could share my not-Bionicle drawings via my blog.
