Huge new in-depth interview on CharacterDesignReferences.com with STRANSKI exclusives!

I'm very proud to announce the release of a new interview I did for one of the greatest hubs of artistic inspiration - CharacterDesignReferences.com! You can read my thoughts on staying motivated, how to break through artist's block, why Who Framed Roger Rabbit is my biggest influence, doing crunches in the studio(!), why right now is the very best time to be an artist, and how STRANSKI's going to bring back a golden era of hand-drawn animation ... or something. All this, and the article features some sneak-peeks at unseen Stranski artwork!

Read the full interview RIGHT HERE, and then go exploring on the site - there is so much breathtaking work to discover!
