Mark Faris

Art to me may not be art to others. But often it is. The level of enjoyment in creating often is determined by the final product.

What is your favorite type of art to create?

It changes. If I see (or hear) something I like, it can be a trigger to create and expand a concept.

Where do you find inspiration?

Inspiration usually is sudden. And convincing. I may spot something from the corner of an eye. Or back of MY BRAIN! Colors and contrast, or just plain cool, often raise the curtain on a project. After a third, and sustained, attempt at MobyDick, I decided to draw the great white whale. And I liked it.

What would you do with $25,000?

Blow it.
