S.Britt - In
his own words : "
In my head there are people and animals and buses and
things so I take a pencil and draw them out. Sometimes
my cat Edsel makes this face like he knows something
I don't and I lock him in the closet for a few days
'til he stops it. When I get a drawing job I like to
put on my lucky blue cap and drink six big glasses
of whiskey and punch, and then I stare at the paper
so hard my eyes hurt. This is how I get all my great
ideas- once I had three great ideas in a row and passed
out.
