We were wondering what a typical day looks like for Alireza when working on a new comic.He commented: “Usually, from the beginning of the day, I try to focus a lot and cut off my connection with the environment around me. Music is an inseparable part of my work, and I always listen to music without words while working. When I find ideas to create a work, I try to watch movies and news photos, observe many works of art with different subjects, study, watch animations, and sometimes I just study so that I can get an idea about the subject I want. Also, seeing the works of other artists and researching their thoughts and ideas is part of my workday. During the stage of the performance of the work, I completely concentrate on creating the work and avoid dealing with side tasks.”
