Episode 146: Andrew C. Robinson

A man whose painted comic covers caught more then just our hosts eye drops in to discuss his gorgeous work!

Andrew C. Robinson has worked for all the major comic book and gaming companies. He has painted covers for titles such as Superman, Starman, Hawkman, and King Conan. He is the creator of his own comic book hero, Dusty Star, and is a multi-award-winning, New York Times best-selling illustrator for his painted work on the acclaimed graphic novel, The Fifth Beatle: The Brian Epstein Story. For this project, he used a mixed-media approach, painting on various surfaces with acrylics, watercolors, gouache, and inks, and then blending his work with digital tools.

Andrew discusses growing up on a potato farm, joining the reserves to help pay for art school and evolving his painting style to reflect the current industry trends.
