10: What’s that one thing that inspired you to make drawing your consistent hobby?

I mean, we switch between writing, drawing, and comics regularly, so I'm not sure you'd call it "consistent," but we just feel compelled to make things and share them. We find the process intrinsically enjoyable and challenging, plus it gets us paid! What's not to like?

20: What works have you drawn fanart of?

Oh, this one's hard; we do fanart very rarely. (It was actually a point of shame for us as kids!) If you subtract things we did as children or for pay/barter (such as our fanart/fic for [personal profile] erinptah's Leif and Thorn), the numbers are extremely low:

From [personal profile] adore, for both art and writing!

Which artists inspire you right now?


Favourite works of all time excluding your own?



What do you like most about your own work?


What are you currently trying to improve?
 
Clarity and simplicity. How can I take whatever it is I'm doing (be it drawing, writing, whatever) and convey exactly what I want to convey with minimal clutter or distraction?

This can vary from "how can I make these two characters falling in love convincing in minimal wordcount?" to "how can I visually depict three  different apartments, with three panels and zero words, that on first glance are immediately, incontrovertibly worse than couch-surfing?" to "how can I describe a complicated mental health topic that's laden with a bunch of jargon, strip all that away, and explain clearly in everyday language?"
