Chris Sickels Interviewed on Your Dreams My Nightmares Podcast

Really nice, long interview with Chris Sickels of Red Nose Studio on the Your Dreams My Nightmares podcast.

I have posted a couple links before to different interviews on the site and this one is really good, particularly if some of the interviews in the past seemed a bit NYC-centic for one's taste.

He talks about going to the Art Academy, working in Cincinnati and Indiana, other Cincinnati illustrators C.F. Payne and Loren Long, and his brief stay in LA for a couple years.

Cool New Series of Illustrator Interviews

I know a couple illustrators around town follow Art Order and they just stared an interview series by Randy Gallegos (a great guy and an amazing illustrator).

Some great stuff! : http://theartorder.com/category/guest-writer/randy-gallegos/
