Advice from the Wise


"DRAW EVERYDAY!

If you don’t enjoy drawing enough to want to do it every single day then you should probably find another line of work! I don’t know about other freelancers, but I work seven days a week.Creativity is a muscle. If you want that muscle to stay strong you’ve got to use it every day. If you fall out of the habit of drawing every day it can be really tough to pick it up again. Muscles weaken much faster than they grow. So don’t stop drawing ever! Take a sketchbook with you everywhere. Keep a sketchbook next to your bed. Keep one in your backpack or hand bag. Delete Angry Birds from your phone and spend your time doodling while you’re waiting in line at the bank or riding the subway from 181st Street to Union Square. Drawing is your religion."



"Says it right there in the Bible. Ecclesiastes:
That which has been is what will be, That which is done is what will be done, And there is nothing new under the sun.
Every new idea is just a mashup or a remix of previous ideas."

"Much of what we interact with is symbolic."


"Interviews and galleries from the top artists in animation, movies, games, illustration and comics."


"The Misconception: You procrastinate because you are lazy and can't manage your time well.
The Truth: Procrastination is fueled by weakness in the face of impulse and is a failure to think about thinking."
