This week I interview the legendary Dark Artist Allen Williams (and his wife Vicki says hello). I'm a huge fan of his graphite and paint work and was really excited to interview him here! Some of the topics we cover: moving around when he was young and being a 'monster' kid in a small town in the south, drawing from a very early age, beginning his career creating art for role playing games in the 80s, the importance of keeping your own artistic 'thing' while doing contract work, creating artwork for book covers, working as a creature designer, his process for creating his work, justifying Dark Art, developing his style and a lot more! This was a really great interview! Very inspiring!
Also a quick art life update and new subscribers.
Interview starts at around 8:00
