【Artist Baton】

◆Your name?
Maxwell "Monkey King" Faria

◆If possible, your age?
18 which is like...145,984,095 in monkey years.

◆When did you start drawing?
Since I was able to stand up long enough to ruin my mother's pearly white walls in the living room with crayons.

◆Which hand do you use for drawing?
Right, but I'm training to use both so I can fight off zombies while I draw. REAL LIFE ZOMBIES!

◆Which is easier to draw - male or female?
Male, but females are so much more fun and beautiful to draw. Thank you ladies!

◆Which is easier to draw - long hair or short hair?
Long hair, but the details can get tricky at times.

◆Is it easier to draw the head facing towards the right or the left?
Doesn't matter.

◆Is it easier to draw the side view of the face or the front view?
The front, but then I feel lazier.

◆What do you have problems in drawing?
Hands are always a bother, also, that bend between the woman's ribcage and the hips. Always a toughy...

◆What do you like to draw?
WOMEN! They're amazing! Thanks again ladies!

◆Are you a traditional artist or a digital artist?
Traditional, digital never tickled my fancy, It's practically blasphemous to me because I can't look at the screen and draw on the tablet at the same time. Seriously! It's like looking left and right at the same time, I don't know how all you peeps can do that. I mean, I can read backwards easy, heck I can recite the alphabet backwards with the greatest of ease, I can even make my pointer finger bend so it appears as if it were broken. But do you guys train one eye to look up and one eye to look down? I must know the secret! Who was your mentor!? What secret ninja monkey technique must I know!?! Would I need the assistance of a monkey to begin with?!?! WHAT COLOR IS THURSDAY!?!?!? Oww...oww...I seem to have gotten a brain aneurysm...I'll stop that now...

◆Where do you start drawing from?
The eyes, personal favorite of mine.

◆What is your drawing habit that you are aware of?
I make the same facial expression as the one I'm drawing. It gets dangerous at times.

◆What do you keep in mind when you do lineart?
Press down on the pencil lighter, the lines will be easier to erase. However, I always seem to forgot as I have the mind of a fish. A REALLY REALLY SMART FISH! ...Which isn't very smart...

◆Any tips for coloring/shading?
PRACTICE!

◆How long does it take to finish a piece of art?
Depends on how relaxed I am. It can take me days to months!

◆What music do you listen to while you draw?
Either Rock, JRock (Japanese rock and roll), or Jazz (must have sax).

◆How long does it take you to come up with an idea?
As much as it takes me to plan world domination. Which can take some time...depending on the day...Sundays never do...

◆Your favorite drawing utensils?
My Pencil, my Prismacolor colored pencils, watercolors and brushes, and good ol' white out!

◆Your favorite color/the color that you use a lot?
Mulberry and Poppy Red are the smexiest colors alive!

◆Your favorite style(s)?
Anime!

◆Are you satisfied with your current art?
What do you mean? Are you saying that my art isn't satisfied with me?!? BLASPHEMY! Ha ha... I don't believe it for a sec... Is it...? Please! Don't leave me hanging, I must know! SEREEEEEENITY!!! DON'T LEAVE ME!!! OWW!...Oww...Another aneurysm ...I'll stop...

◆What kind of artist are you aiming for?
If you mean what kind of artist I want to be? A manga artist! If you mean what kind of artist I would like to snipe out, then that's strictly classified information...

◆Thank you.
Wait! You were reading all of this the whole time?!? apioashdfkljh *head falls foward and dies from another aneurysm*
