Reza Ilyasa, Master comics artist interview.
When I first saw Reza's Mecha art, I was like WTF! These are super awesome! I feel really inspired every single time I run into super great art and design. I thought he was a concept artist so I contact him. It turns out, he is a professional comics artist in Jakarta, Indonesia. Then I saw more of his art work from the link he send me via DeviantArt, I was even more excited. Very impressive body of work there. And he is kind enough to give us a short interview at idrawgirls.com
idrawgirls: How and why did you want to become a professional commercial and concept Artist?
Reza: I'm not declare myself as a concept artist, all i do now is just for fun and fulfilling my passion for creating what i thought cool, ive been using digital imaging since 5 years ago, way back before i was manual ilustrator, im also dont know how to use photoshop, i only use pencil and pen to draw, back to year 2000 is when i explore myself to be illustrator, i start it cos i dont hav any choice and decide to be comic artist, i guest there's where i learn to be a concept artist.
idrawgirls: What is your first art job and how did you start?
Reza: Until now, i work at Imaginary Friends studio at Jakarta, Indonesia, i work there as comic artist, and spare my time to do what i love, digital painting, and learning from everything i see and love, too many influence
idrawgirls: Where do you get your inspiration from?
Reza: I don't really have any certain inspiration, but my girlfriend is one of it, all i interest in is shapes, like bots, rocks, cliff, sky, i also get my mood back when i see 90s music video,rock video, lol, yeah ocourse, 90s video got great color mood, i dunno what the exact influence for me, some ppl say im bit gundam, but i don't really like it, ii don't even collect them
(idrawgirls: Yeah, I can see why you love Gundam.)
idrawgirls: To you, what are the three most important elements in painting or concept art in general?
Reza: Three element in painting that the most important for me is... lay out, good composition, atmosphere/mood
idrawgirls: What would you suggest to young artists on how to get start and become the better artist?
Reza: My advice will be, heck bout techniq, pay attention to composing, photoshop or elseit just tools, the most important thing is do it with honest and fun... yeah!!
