They just write you off, but these guys didn’t. Now, nobody does that! Nobody says, ‘I owe you money’.
Each month they would send me a message saying, ‘We owe you money’. I did some black and white work for them and then they failed to pay me. When I was at GenCon I got introduced to the people at Wizards of the Coast. And then you learn, and you learn, and you learn. Well, when someone is paying you $15 a piece for ten drawings, they don’t care much about a portfolio, they just want it cheap. I taught for 20 years then I retired and started doing illustration. I didn’t have a lot of time for my own work, you come home tired. In the binder you can find some of Dan's Moxes.ĭid you develop your own work simultaneously to teaching?

A camera doesn’t know anything about what it’s taking a picture of, but does a really good job taking at taking a picture, that’s what I had to learn how to do.Īnd I taught art for 20 years, so I would teach kids how to draw. This was a book by Betty Edwards, who was a terrible writer, but the exercises were really good. “Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain” taught me to see things like camera. I was reading Tolkien and drawing little cartoon guys like that, but I didn’t really know how to draw until my last semester. When I moved there I thought it was going to be a cowboy town full of horses on the street and guys wearing cowboy hats, but… nope! It was just a regular old town.
I was never told not to, so I always did a lot of art. My mother gave me typing paper and I got to draw on it. This week we had the honour of meeting Dan Frazier over Skype and talk about his life and work.ĭan was one of the original 25 Magic artists, where he painted the iconic Moxes, and more than 150 Magic cards since. Welcome to our Magic artist interview series number #49!
