If all the pens in the world ran out, what would be your next tool of choice?
I think I’d quit. Just kidding. My favorite medium is paint. Oil, specifically. So I’d be sad, but life would move on.
Do you have any other hobbies?
I’m a great singer. Just kidding. I’m an awful singer. I love to read. I really like the classics, but I’m also into sci-fi and fantasy. I’m very passionate about writing, too. I would say writing painting and drawing are more than hobbies to me, though. You don’t call surgery a hobby to a doctor. I wouldn’t call creating art a hobby to an artist.
What would your dream job be?
Hopefully something in the art department in film. I like Production Design, but I’m less concerned about the hierarchy of things. If I can get paid to paint, that’d be cool. My life goal is to have my own gallery.
Any crazy stories or encounters since you’ve gotten more media attention?
Hah. There are a couple of interesting moments. I’ve had people say that want to cut off my leg, people who’ve offered to fly me to their country, and I’ve had reporters ask me to draw their face. Some fun stuff.
Where do you see yourself in ten years?
In ten years I’m probably going to be working in film. That’s the goal. But I could also see myself living in UK. I plan on running a tortoise sanctuary one day. And having a studio there. Animals, traveling, an art. That’s the dream.
What’s your outfit of choice for your body sketching?
Skirts. I went from literally never wearing skirts to wearing them all the time.
Do you draw on other people as well? Are you considering making a business out of that?
I have drawn on other people, but I don’t see a career in it. It’s pretty silly. I have to wash them off. I want some of my art to last.
How long on average does it take for your drawings to wash off at the end of the day?
Ten minutes, tops. Shocker, I know. I wouldn’t do it if it stayed on. It would look like I don’t shower.
What are some of your favorite body sketches you’ve done so far? What are some you plan to do in the near future?
I love to Walter White and the elephant. Breaking Bad is my favorite show. And I chose to do the elephant because of the detail work. I like drawing intricate detail. I don’t have any plans, as of right now.
