Interview with:Peta Taylor [ptequine]
ART
 | What do you do? How do you define yourself as an artist? I am a freelance illustrator, drawing cartoons for a children's horse magazine. |
| What is your message? I have a positive approach to my work and I hope that people see the lighter side of life through it, and enjoy it. |
| Your biography in four lines. A few years after high school I completed a cartooning and illustrating diploma. I undertook further studies in art and graphic design then worked for several years at a print house. Now involved in freelance illustration. |
| Do you upload your work to the web? If so, where could we see it? http://www.petataylorillustrations.com |
| How is an idea born? For you, what is inspiration? I get more and more ideas as long as I keep sketching. Ideas come to me while I'm riding my horse, driving, talking to others, anything. Past experience usually comes into it also. |
| When do you get your best ideas? When I am spending time with my horse or talking to friends. |
| How do you evaluate whether an idea is good or not? It depends on whether there is an emotional reaction to the idea, however small. A picture has to spark a feeling. |
| Why do so many artists and creators have such volatile personalities? Creatives types can be overly emotional and sensitive. Spending a lot of time self-absorbed in your own world probably doesn't always make for good social interaction in the real one either. |
| What advice would you give to those just beginning? Find a balance between retaining your own objectives and style, while listening to and being inspired by others. Keep learning. |
