Interview with Hank<\/strong>
\nby Abel Ib\u00e1\u00f1ez G.<\/p>\n

Which tools did you use for the creation of the artwork?<\/strong>
\nPen, pencil, ink and paint marker on paper.<\/p>\n

What was the creative process of this piece, from the origin until it was finished?<\/strong>
\nI wrote the words first and this triggered the image. I worked over and around the writing with color and shape.<\/p>\n

What were your references, influences or inspirations during your creative process?<\/strong>
\nSeveral days earlier l had been looking through a book of Jean-Michel Basquiat drawings and paintings. This combined with life experience of a broken heart from romantic love.<\/p>\n

I am pleased with this piece because I feel that it is truthful, including heartbreak and humour.<\/p>\n

What did you enjoy the most about the process?<\/strong>
\nI liked that it came together freely without struggle. I felt that I had expressed myself.<\/p>\n

What was the hardest thing for you and how did you solve it?<\/strong>
\nI spent a few days thinking through things before the clarity of expression came to me.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
