any and all

Drinking malt liquor doesn't seem to do any good

but if I smoke some good dope and get stuck on the project I can really come correct, but at the same time if I'm up for a couple of days i start seeing shit and tweek to hard on simple shit

so I prefer to be close to sober I always listen to music and if it starts buggin me I kill it

right now I'm drinking working on a flyer but just some good beer so I'm able to stay motivated

I think the one thing that weighs me down the most is what I'm doing right now browsing the fucken web

It all depends...I got a real clean life style, so it's never drink or smoke. It's usually music or the tv. I gotta have some kinda noise going on in the background or I can't concentrate. Most the time, I'm not even paying attention to what's playin', but I gotta have it there or I go crazy.
Occasionally, if I'm really just not feelin' it, I'll surf the web and find work other people have done and then I'll get into that "this dude sucks, I can do what he did 10x better and kill his shit" and then I'll just go after it. It all depends on the project and what time a day it is. I usually do my best work late at night under pressure.

sober.

preferably with silence, but if there's annoying background noise, then i use music to drown it out.

i think Essqubed was the only graphic artist i heard of who worked while drinkin liquor and still made sicc ass shit...he would always post his illustrations he drew and the "equipment" he used....it would look somethin like:

no. 2 pencil
illustrator
Bombay Safire

lol....he was a foo for that shit.....

i can barely function on a comp jus to use the internet if im drinkin so i know i couldnt do no graphics....

and i think Slow Poke is the opposite....he'll be sober as hell and make graphics that look like he was drunk when he made em...lol...

maybe it's cuz my hair is cut short so it sticks up. but it's still long enough for it to be pressed down with headphones
