Tomáš Olekšák — Bratislava, Slovakia

What mistake or trap should a young artist/designer avoid when working on sequential art? “I am still making a lot of mistakes every day. But I don’t believe that’s a bad thing, we all learn from mistakes and they help form us into the artists we want to be one day. So just be persistent, work hard and results will come eventually.”

Olekšak is freelance illustrator and concept artist with a background in video games and the marketing industry. He says he is a “huge fan” of comic books and is “always looking for interesting new projects”.
