THE DESIGN RECHARGE SHOW: Blake Stevenson // Mining Cuteness

Episode 214

Blake Stevenson is one of my heroes, because everything he makes has some sort of cuteness factor in it. I am always afraid of making something ugly and it is like he has a magic pen and with it everything he creates is cute, even his skulls rank high on the cuteness scale. So I say Blake is mining cuteness, he has struck gold and the ore he pulls from his creative mine (I am using a mining analogy) is filled with unstoppable cuteness.

.

I will ask him if he ever makes anything ugly, or is it still cute? Blake has the  ability to reveal emotion while creating the cutest characters. This week I will be interviewing Blake Stevenson, the mastermind behind Jetpacks and Rollerskates. Blake works a full time job, has a family, and still finds time to create for himself and share those creations with us. This episode will dig into how he makes realistic goals, fights against trend band-wagon-riding, and how he found his style.

.

On this episode we will also talk about where to go for inspiration and how he continues to see growth in his characters and his style. I hope you will join us for the LIVE show Wednesday, May 31, at 1 pm ET / 10 am PT.
