Jeffrey Brown

I keep up with James Kochalka’s online strip, and if I see a link somewhere or someone tells me about something, I’ll look at it, but I don’t usually keep up with any sites other than the ‘American Elf.’ I always have this feeling that there’s not enough space in the screen, like everything’s always getting cut off.

Only 10 percent of people who go to art school will still be making art in 10 years. To some extent, you have to want to do it. It’s hard. It is something you really have to stick with for it to work.
