I’m very blessed to be able to visualize my ideas mentally and sit down in front of paper and just transfer my thoughts. It’s extremely gratifying when it comes out how you visualized it, but extremely frustrating when it’s not what you had in mind.
Before I start working on a comic, I set up shop and listen to music. I’m big on background noise; sitting in silence doesn’t work for me. Sometimes I put on old comedy reruns just for the aesthetic.
I’m an old-school guy; I only use pencils, various sizes of inking pens, and Copic markers. I have begun to use some programs to clean up the illustrations because quality is very important.
Matt Groening, creator of The Simpsons, and Gary Larson of The Far Side are those people who inspired me and shaped my artistic style.
Whenever I have an idea or visualize one of my comics in my head, I immediately doodle the concept onto a post-it or any piece of paper lying around and put it in my pocket. When I get home, I have a tin box, and I put it in there with all the others. Needless to say, the box is full of ideas, some I forgot I even drew, which is always a pleasant surprise when you’re on the brink of having cartoonist block.
