When asked, "How did comics come into your life?" 3Palec revealed, "I’ve never been interested in comics. It’s just type of art that can best convey a dynamic story in static. One illustration cannot convey the sequence of actions."
On the topic of his goals with his art, 3Palec said, "I put an idea into each illustration, but I don’t have a task to convey something to someone, because people see what they want to see, and I try to expose human vices." His art is a tool for reflection, rather than direct communication.
Questioned about his inspiration, 3Palec responded to us that, "People cause me the greatest interest. People in real life, people on the Internet, people in extreme situations... I just look at what is happening, draw conclusions and create my illustrations." He finds inspiration in the multifaceted nature of human behavior and life experiences.
Responding to the query, "Did you study to be the artist you are today?" he disclosed, "I have no art education. Today this is not a problem, if someone wants to be an artist, illustrator or designer, it is enough just to practice on paper or in graphic editors." He emphasized the importance of practice over formal education in his creative journey.
Finally, when asked about his frequency of creating comics, he said, "I draw comics with different frequency. I create sketches almost every day, but due to the fact that I am only interested in unique or unusual ideas, not all sketches turn into illustrations." He underscored the importance of originality in his work, not just productivity.
