Questions & Talking Points: (add your stuff here) |
Welcome to the show Gary. Thank you for taking the time to chat with us today. Would you mind telling us a little bit about yourself and your illustration work? |
Growing up I was a huge fan of magazines. I don’t get out as much as I used to. How is the magazine market from your perspective? |
One of my favorite magazines had to be Highlights. I remember it being a visual onslaught of my youthful mind. I especially enjoyed the puzzles. Do you get to create any of the puzzle illustrations? |
How much direction or freedom are you given to create games and puzzles in your illustration work? |
The most challenging? |
How often do you see your own work when you visit the doctor or dentist office? |
Gary can you tell us about the tools you use to create your illustrations? Software? Devices? Traditional Mediums. |
Do you have a favorite medium |
Do you have any tips or words of warning for aspiring illustrators who would like to get into the magazine and book illustration field? |
Who’s always right? The artist or the editor? |
Did Magazine Illustration choose you or did you choose it? |
Follow up: Any advice for cartoonists / illustrators looking to break into things like puzzle/activity books? |
Do you do mostly piece work, or do your proejcts involve licensing/royalties? (Feel free to veto this if it’s too personal.) |
