Interview With Pascal Campion (Part 2) :: ArtCast #75

By Chris Oatley

The Tour Pascal Campion

“I can’t take ten steps without seeing something I want to paint or draw…”

– Pascal Campion

In part one of this interview, we learned about Pascal Campion’s early career and his development into a uniquely versatile professional artist.

In this episode, Pascal manages to communicate to us how his creative mind actually works – which is extremely difficult to do.

He also shares some stirringly thoughtful responses to questions from my color theory and digital painting students. We talk about portfolios, art school, composition,  lighting and, of course, personal style.

Pascal’s “Skill-Builder” Project:

Up A Tree Pascal Campion

To make more time for his family, Pascal committed to a full-time freelance in the Spring of 2007.

A wave of vocational success followed as Pascal’s client base has grown to include major media companies like Disney, Dreamworks and Cartoon Network.
