Interview
with Illustrator Mogoon

What are the Prospects of Stylized Character Art?
The illustration industry is growing. Unlike the past, people aren't reluctant to buy drawings. Especially since stylized art satisfies a wide variety of needs. One thing you should keep in mind is to stay balanced. It is important not to draw an overly detailed face that fits a more realistic art style, but stylized characters are still humans, so you must avoid poses that can be perceived as uncomfortable or awkward.
What Do You Think Is the Most Important Principle for Drawing Illustrations?
I think it's important to set a standard. Standards can mean a lot of things. It could be your objective, and it could be your balancing point. By suggesting a definitive standard to the subjective activity that is art, we can make it easily accessible to everybody. I am going to be teaching you art fundamentals with a more theoretical approach to help you set a basic frame of standards, and go through every step of creating complete stylized character art.
What Would You Describe as Your Unique Differentiating Strength?
Most people draw alone. If you work alone for a long time, you will have a hard time objectively self-evaluating your work. I use a distinctive diagnosis method and thought process to get the most objective view of my work, and I use a systematic approach that leads to improvement. With this class, What I'm teaching is not just a simple technique, but rather a method you can continuously use in your future drawing journey.
