I figured I’d answer this in a post in case anyone else was interested in the answer!

First of all, thank you! :) I get ideas from everywhere, nature, animals, people, inspiration from other artists. Often times an idea will just pop into my head when I’m driving or in the shower, at which point I must write it down immediately otherwise I’ll forget it the next morning. I actually have a little to do list on my iphone, anytime I think of a new concept or project I type it in and when I’m feeling inspired, I go through the list and see what can accomplish!

When I create characters, I usually just start with the eyes. Somehow I always know who my creature is going to be from their eyes. From there I just mess around with different shapes and features, erasing and redrawing until I get the right fit. “How would he look with horns? Skinny arms or fat arms? Should he wear suspenders? Nah, he looks good in a suit.” etc. It’s all a matter of practice and experimenting! :)

I drew the picture on the left when I was 18. I’ve always been in love with the concept, so I decided to upgrade it 5 years later. #lagoon #art #jessieshungry prints of the new version are available in my shop! Jessieshungry.com/shop
