I believe there is a moment in one's evolution as an artist where they think of something gory and decide they want to create that. I find it quite laudable for an artist to be willing to go in that direction specifically because there are *so many* artists that outright refuse to draw gore and grimdark despite being okay with other adult subjects (i.e. pornography). It is also quite laughable because of the popularity of horror films, but at any rate; do you recall your "moment"?

Hmm… I don’t really think it was a moment as you define it. I was always into drawing death as a subject, mostly because I found it to be sexually arousing. So I didn’t really go out of my way to draw it because it was something that people avoided drawing. I drew it because I liked it, loved it even. 

It’s something I don’t think I’ll ever stop drawing. Either because of the pure pleasure I get from it, or because of the contrast it provides in the artistic spectrum. There’s a certain level of pride I take in doing the best I can to be the best at what I create. A reason I found to continue drawing it, is because I knew as a kid that no one else would. I needed to create what I wanted to see myself, and I guess that’s what drove me to take it up as a goal in life.
