"I roll into the studio around 5am most days. There's a front office where a lot of my books are and where my assistant works, and a lot of hanging art. The pieces on the wall are original paintings for comic book covers and gallery works. After you pass through the office you're in the main studio that's been designed to be as completely comfortable - almost homey - as possible."
"In the shot below, we see my digital drawing space, where I do 90 per cent of my illustration work (see our guides to the best drawing tablets and the best laptops for drawing - ed). Up close is a collaboration painting I did with fellow artist Jim Mahfood. Bookshelves and sitting areas abound. I have ADHD, so any given day I could need to work differently than the day before."
"The goal is to not let my ADHD give me an excuse not to work, but rather to roll with it. I have options. Both digital and traditional art gets made here: from ink and watercolour to oil to digital. I have a table for traditional art. I love working in mixed media, so at any given time I'm gonna need something different. I try and keep as much as I can near me."
The studio occupies an unnoticed first-floor space in an office building with realtors and physical therapy offices. A front office holds numerous books, an assistant's workspace, and hanging original paintings for comic book covers and gallery pieces. The main studio is arranged to feel comfortable and homey. The digital drawing area handles roughly 90 percent of illustration work and includes collaborative paintings. Multiple bookshelves, seating choices, and three to four distinct workstations enable different working modes. Both digital and traditional media are produced, with mixed-media supplies and a traditional art table kept within reach.
