How did you get into drawing sketch cards? I have been digital-pals with sir Grant Gould for quite some time now & a few years ago when the Lord of the Rings sets were coming out, he passed on my info to Topps to get me in. From there I have continued doing sketch cards for Topps & I even got into Upperdeck sets. You can see a majority of those at www.mayonnaiseandbread.com.

Sketch Card Artist interview with Sean Pence
How did you get into drawing sketch cards? Quite by accident actually. I’d leave flyers of my (FARSCAPE) artwork available on freebie tables at various cons; somehow one of those made it’s way into the hands of Robert Kohlbus from Rittenhouse Archives and he contacted me back in 2002. I was a little apprehensive about drawing on such a small scale as, up until that point, most of my...

Sketch Card Artist interview with Anthony Fleecs
So, this might end up being a pretty boring interview— just so you know— right off the bat. Here’s what I think the answers to all the questions will be: “Whatever’s quickest, whatever’s handy.” Case in point: one of my favorite comic book artists is John Romita, Jr. When I was young and impressionable I ran into his work on Uncanny X-Men (I think) and...
