A: So im WG, a French self taught graphic designer since 3 years. I love all about arts! Music, design, fashion etc…

 

Q2: How did you get into the field of your work?

A: When i was young, i made graffiti, drawing, painting, I always drew, it is in me! Its my best way of expression!

At the beginning i fiddled on the software PAINT, after that I knew PHOTOSHOP, a revelation! Since this day I do not stop spending hours to create covers, logos, artworks etc….

Q5: How was it for you to learn the process of that? Did you teach yourself, take classes or learn from other existing artist’s tutorial?

A: I’m completely self-taught, i learn some tutorials on the web! I think art school is not indispensable, it is enough to have the creative spirit…

 

Q6: Do you think its possible for you to describe the process of your art style, what are the dos and don’ts, the important aspects you set yourself to achieve your style of design?

A: Its not easy but im from Urban world, Hip Hop, so i think we can see it on my artworks! Colorful, Movement, Dynamic, Bright and sometimes Dark are some words who can qualify my style. It depend of my inspiration! I just do what i feel!

 

Q7: What are the biggest struggles you encounter as an artist?

A: The PRESSUUUURE! lol Sometimes people does not include the number of hours spent behind the screen, the area of art is very undervalued ;) Working freelance is not easy, its really difficult to be respected. Sometimes it’s hard to find motivation to work on something you fundamentally disagree but its the work!

 

Q8: Do you have any other future plans that don’t involve creative art?

A: Sure!  I would like to work on videos projects, vidéoclips, music vidéos etc… Create movie posters would be a very good experience! Im very open for all plans, the futur will say it to me lol
