2dartist: Hi Tyson, thanks for talking to 2d artist! Could you start by introducing yourself a bit to the readers?
Tyson Murphy: Hi everyone! I’m Tyson and I’ve been working in the industry for about seven years. I love games and animation, have worked in both, and have always gravitated towards a stylized approach in my own artwork. I try to focus on emotion more than anything else in my artwork. I’ve had some pretty good successes so far, and even more failures! I like being open and honest with people, and I also like making people laugh. I am married to my high school sweetheart and we have two amazing children.
2da: Your works have a really distinctive style, often with bright colors and energetic poses. Do you have any tips for readers who want to recreate this in their own work?
