**Q**: Where is Steve? How long are his breaks?
**A**: I take frequent breaks throughout the day, including a 30 minute lunch. Most breaks are around 15 minutes. If I'm gone longer than that, it's probably because I'm watching my kids or helping my wife with chores.

**Q**: Do you use a tablet? What kind of program are you using?
**A**: I currently use an XP-Pen Pro 13.3 tablet. I am using Photoshop CS6.
**Q**: What's your canvas size? Why is it tan instead of white?
**A**: My canvas is typically 3000x4000 at 300dpi. I keep my background a warm color to reduce eye strain.
**Q**: What sort of program/tablet would you recommend?
**A**: I would recommend paper and a pencil. Don’t spend your money on an expensive program and tablet unless you feel confident in your ability to draw.
**Q**: How long have you been drawing?
**A**: I’ve been drawing ever since I was a little kid. Got a book called “How to Draw Marvel Comics”, and the rest is pretty much history. I've been drawing professionally since 2012.
**Q**: Did you go to art school?
**A**: I’ve taken the odd class here and there, but I am primarily self-taught.
