Economic Times, by Mudra


Nishant Choksi : I’m a 33 year old illustrator working from Brighton, England. I’m married and have a daughter with a second one coming in July. I like comic books, UPA animation, Gram Parsons and coffee.
Why are you an Illustrator?
I wanted to be a comic book artist but could never get beyond the first panel. Illustration seemed like the best alternative. My work is one panel from a longer narrative.
Did you attend school for fine art or design?
I studied fine art at Central St. Martins. I didn’t like the look of illustration and design courses as they were too structured. The fine art course was more about working things out on your own and self initiated.
You have a distinct style of illustration. How long did it take you to develop your style?
I’ve been working for about 9 years and my style has developed a lot in this time. It was much more angular and cartoony in the earlier days. I still feel like I’m finding my voice. I have a way to go before I feel I’ve nailed what’s in my head.
