Perfect is hard to say because most of the shows i love will always have small flaws. Brooklyn 99, pushing dasies, Avatar the last air bender, and futurama would be shows that i would say are the peak best of their genre. some still better than others. another fantastic show is The Good Place. s…

Probably last week. I was asked by my boss who knew i was artistic if i could paint a picnic table for a summer display. He asked me at the beginning of june and told me it needed to be done by the 20th. I agreed because that was plenty of time and he said he would talk with my supervisor about …

How do you deal with creative burnout?

This would be something that I do too. If I'm burnt out I can't stop drawing because there is a chance that if i do It will take a long while to get back into drawing. It never has to be anything big. The best bet is too draw the story characters, so I'm still thinking about them. But mostly it…

Your favorite commercial story?

long long maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan actually this is the only one i can think of right now. my favourite trailer is actually probably the oregon trailer, which doesn't really tell a story as much as it showcases lots of little magical visual stories.

What is your favorite book you ever read and did you draw inspiration from it for your story?

I love kristen cashore probably because her stories remind me so much of Tamora Piece. she has three books, Graceling, Fire, and Bitterblue. All of them about different women in the same world. I always recommend people reading them if they liked pierce. especially since the characters Katsa and Po …

What is your favorite book you ever read and did you draw inspiration from it for your story?

My favorite book of all time is pride and Prejudice. But as inspiration I think the only things it inspires in my stories is how the two main leads act. In most of my stories there will be a darcy and lizzie dynamic. The Stories that DO inspire my stories the most is anything by Tamora Pierce or…

How did you title your comic/novel(s)?

The Comic Storytale is literally the mash of the word story and fairytale. since it's a story about fairytales. now that i type it is sounds so basic. Lalita at the end of the universe is because the main character Lalita is suppose to travel through space to a place call "the end of the universe" …

Opinions on colour for this outfit design?

I like the blue and the soft blue. But i think the blue would work best as a visual contrast to her blonde hair. What i lime about the soft blue is how the details pop. On the hems. But i think that can be used also on the blue if you put a lighter tone of that blue on the insides of those detail…
