Description

Here's the full transcript to the Live interview that I had exactly 1 week ago, on August 19th, with you guys. It was so much fun!


Great and funny questions have been asked about art- and non-art related subjects. If you want to gain some insight on how I work, this might be a good read for you!


Special thanks to #AskTheArtist who hosted the interview, and *SilentReaper for giving me the chance to participate!


I hope you enjoy the reading.
Cheers! And thank you for participating :heart: xxx

"It's all about the details and capturing someone's essence on paper, not their
likeness."
- I hear a lot about this, what does it means? what is the difference between likeness and essence?

"If a drawing appears quite okay to the
eye, but something seems to look a bit off, hold a mirror next to your drawing and you will find
your flaw immediately!"
- This method doesn't work with me. When i mirror a picture, I see it exactly the same. Usually I fix mistakes by changing hand. Just switching hand make the drawing look different to my eyes, I wonder why.

"I lift my hand while I draw, so I don't touch my paper at all"
- I tried that but I can control the pencil this way.
"I switch between drawing with my left and right hand (I'm ambidextrous.)"
- In my case, whathever I do with my left hand, it doesn't smudge at all when I use pencils.
But lately I only draw with pen, so smudging became impossible.
Did you tried dual handed tecnique?
