In this episode I have a good long talk with my friend Raymond Bonilla. I’ve know Ray for many many years, way back since art school. In this episode we reminisce a little bit about the talent we were surrounded by in school, his beginnings in illustration, the split into a fine artist, inspirations, a little technique and much more.
