Ed Piskor, creator of Hip Hop Family Tree (which debuted right here at Boing Boing) shared with us some of the ancient artistic tools that inspires his unique technique.
While drawing a splendid Happy Mutant, he takes us through his “war chest”: zip-a-tone sheets, letraset, a Leroy lettering gadget, risography, and the immortal spirit of great cartooning.
He also muses on what it’s like to teach students who know every corner of a Wacom tablet, but recoil in horror when the only undo level is a splodge of white-out.
Enjoy the 35-minute visit to his studio! And keep an eye out for the Happy Mutant you see below—we’ll be auctioning them for a good cause soon.
