Mi: Josh, thanks for taking the time to answer a couple questions for the MoT nation. Not posessing much artistic talent myself, such vivid pieces always awe me. It is incredible how you convey your creative imagination to paper (or other medium). What's your secret?
JM: All it takes is a good dose of boredom, a set of Faber-Castell pens, and a nice piece of paper.
Mi: I don't think i'm treating my looseleaf well enough, my blobs are blobs my stick people..yeah.blobs..anyways Have you always wanted to be a graphic designer, or in some artistic field?
JM: Ever since I came in contact with Threadless.com.
Mi: Hah yeah, you and your crazy threadless shirts, I see you're wearing one now. That pink one you always tried to hide under your polos was great. Onwards...When I write a blog post, I draw my inspiration from random events that I muse about that day, and then build off of it. What inspires your work?
JM: Fairy Tales, the Bible.. I like [to] manipulate stories.. Add my own twist.

Mi: Yeah, there's a lot of vivid stories to draw from there, and obviously it wouldn't be you if you didn't add your own somethin somethin. If you were to try to pindown your artwork into one of those mystical categries, which would it be?
JM: Graphic Illustration. I like to find a combination between easy to read story telling and detailed illustration.
Mi: Hahah, dude sometimes, I have no clue what your goats are doing in your drawings,
but it's alright you're telling the story of your craziness. And by the way, amazing job at McCrayfish.com. Did you create the site yourself, code and such?
JM: Well, she's currently under construction. I'm working on building McCrayfish.com using Wordpress as a CMS.
Mi: Aha, I've dabbled in HTML and such, and that's just not me, too tedious. Maybe if this she takes off. Could you tell us which piece your most proud of over at McCrayfish.com?
JM: Being an artist, my "favorite" piece is ever changing. Never content.
Mi: Well, I think DeMi agree that this is our favorite piece. Have you done any freelance work?
JM:I've done work for The Wisconsin Juniors Volleyball club, and Revolution student ministries, to name a few.
