SVS Artist Interview with Braden Hallett - Art of B
-
Awesome read! That's cool that you actually try all the suggestions thus giving your creativity a wider range. And nobody wants to hear that they're a thousand hours away from realizing their goal but what would be doing a thousand hours from now if we don't go for it?! Very inspiring! Thanks to both of you!
-
@kathrynadebayo awesome idea for this. Also a fun read. I created a topic under General for "Interviews" You can start to use that one moving forward. Great suggestion @LauraA .
-
This was great! I look forward to many more. And if you have not checked out @Art-of-B 's webcomic you should. It is really well done. But be careful. You may be there hours later reading each one. And then WHAM you get to the latest one and now you are addicted and have to wait for the next one to come out. Also, @Art-of-B, if you don't make money on Cato, you should. Someone needs to pick it up and publish it. You are an excellent writer and world builder and I like to think I am a connoisseur of such things.

Great Idea! Thanks for taking the time both of you @KathrynAdebayo @Art-of-B. It's so great to hear the stories and process of growth of people who are in similar shoes moving toward becoming a professional.

Ha Ha I also live in the middle of nowhere British Columbia

@chrisaakins Thanks
Someday maybe I'll start a patreon or some such. I don't think it's publishable, though, since it tends to switch between portrait, landscape, black and white, greyscale, and colour with absolutely no warning :smiling_face_with_open_mouth_closed_eyes: -
@rcartwright No way! Super far north? Cariboo? Interior? One of those awesome little towns between cities? Horsefly? Spuzzum?
I was beginning to worry that there were no other artists beyond the lower mainland :smiling_face_with_open_mouth_closed_eyes:

@art-of-b @rcartwright i think @surfshineart lives in BC also. Surf town.
-
@chrisaakins Agreed! I casually clicked on that comic and then experienced a complete loss of time as I binge-read the entire thing!!
-
@art-of-b I live in the West Kootenays but I run resort kitchens as a chef so my work takes me all over the province
-
I too, made the mistake
of checking out the Cato comic and just spent the last hour that I was going to work on painting instead reading the comic! Fortunately, we are in the middle of a blizzard so if I don't lose power, I foresee more binge reading because I'm hooked. @Art-of-B, your comic is not only well illustrated but well written which I think is a really rare combination and a unique gift. Thanks, @KathrynAdebayo so much for the interview and I look forward to getting to know more about the amazing people on the forum. -
Great read! And great to know a little more about Braden
-
Nice
I could imagine these being collected and turned into a book one day. I'd buy it
-
@chip-valecek Wow, Chip! Thanks for making "interviews" an option! Good idea, @LauraA
-
@KathrynAdebayo Congratulation for the interview and the great idea. Thank you for sharing.
@Art-of-B It was good to read about who is behind the great art of B
I loved reading it. Thank you -
Very interesting read! Congrats @Art-of-B on your journey and thank you for the interview!
@KathrynAdebayo I'm looking forward to reading more interviews in the future, it's such a great idea and I thank you for bringing it to the forums! -
this thread is really exciting! what a great idea @KathrynAdebayo . i follow quite a few svs fellows on Instagram and often wonder about the person behind the art, @Art-of-B in particular. braden's work always stands out on the IG feed and now i know a bit about him. thanks.
also, the cato comic series is great! -
@Art-of-B My husband's mother was a Hallett. I wonder if you're related
They were in Minnesota. Anyway, great interview and I appreciate your critiques on my D and D characters. -
great interview to read! thanks @KathrynAdebayo I always adore @Art-of-B 's works
