the coolest thing to happen to me in is something i never fathomed when i started doing dready art …
that people would ask for portraits of their lives but with traditional dready stick figure characters rather than evolved depictions of themselves … and it happened from the very first commissions (actually the very first paid commission was a request for the ‘Last Supper’ done with dready stick figure characters).
it was cool for me that people were drawn to the original characters in that kind of way.
i do both; like the below i sometimes characterize people as stylized versions of themselves, selves that you can see, with their lives around them in a more evolved way …
but it still coolest to me that people wanna see themselves in that other way …
live love life …
