Frequently Asked Questions
 
 

I think I shall take the time here to answer various things that people have asked me about my art over the years... And also to stop other people from asking them themselves.

 
     
  Qu1. Do you trace/copy your pictures from somewhere else?  
 
  Ans. NO!!! I DON'T! ... This really annoys me when people ask this. not only are you implying that I playjourise other peoples pictures, but you're also saying i have no artistic talent of my own. so please, don't ask that... or you'll get shouted at.  
 
       
  Qu2. How long does it take you to draw something?  
  Ans. This is an odd question. It really depends purely on how big and how detailed the picture is. Also on how inspired i feel, and how many times I think it looks awful and erase bits. On average though, an uncoloured un inked A4 drawing would take me about an hour at the most.  
 
       
  Qu3. What programs do you use for colouring pictures on the computer?  
 
  Ans. PhotoshopCS2  
       
  Qu4. Where did you get the graphics for this web site from?  
 
  Ans. I made them all myself using Photoshop. It took me about 2 days to do although setting it up on this site took much longer.  
 
       
  Qu5. Could you design a web site for me?  
  Ans.

Designing custom web sites from scratch and coding them takes a lot of time and effort. My web site took about 2 months to build, but that's because it's the first time that I have coded something this complicated.

Web site designing companies are likely to charge around £400. I would also like to set up web and graphic design like a business. But obviously I would charge less. At the moment I am not charging for web design, but i'm only making web sites for friends and family if they ask.

However, if you would like to get more information about designing web sites for you please email me.

 
 
       
  Qu6. How long would it take you to create a web site?  
  Ans. I'm not entirely sure at the moment to be honest, but a lot less time than this site took to build. So maybe 3 weeks?  
 
       
  Qu7. Are there any other examples of your work I could see concerning web design/graphic design?  
 
  Ans.

I have designed parts of another web site. They wanted to keep the very simple layout so I created new buttons, a new title, a new background and new page specific sidebars.

  Qu8. How do I make the paintbrush pressure sensitive in Photoshop? I use a drawing tablet too.  
 
  Ans. Actually, I'm making a short tutorial on how to do just that. Bare with me at it will be up soon
