Robin Eisenberg, a Curious Girl Who Enjoys Dreaming about the Possibility of Life on other Planets

Collaborated with JumpFromPaper, Robin Eisenberg wanted each cartoon backpack to look different. 

She created a pattern using some of her favorite shapes and objects for one, and for the other, she thought it would be fun to draw the cartoon backpack more like a canvas and paint a portrait on it.

Wanna know more about her? We have some interesting questions for her:

• If you could live on the other planets, where do you want to be?

Somewhere between two moons and craters and epic sunsets and lots of interesting plants and animals. 

• Name one of your favorite movie and the reasons for that?

Hackers! 😍  Rollerblading, vinyl pants, 90s computers, that Acid Burn haircut… all so amazing.

• Who is your favorite artist?

SO MANY! A few, right now, are Kristen Liu-Wong, Lorraine Sorlet, Bodil Jane.

• Your pet peeves?

When people think a career in art or illustration is just a hobby when my computer cable doesn’t quite reach my laptop from the outset when I want to floss but I only have an inch of floss left. 🙄  

• What is the bravest decision you have made in your life?

Quitting a safe job to become a full-time artist. I don’t know if it was the bravest, but it was definitely the best decision! 

• Have you ever experienced creative blocks?

Yes! Definitely. When that happens I try my best to break up my routine by doing something I’ve never done before, going somewhere I’ve never been, or just revisiting a book or place that has always inspired me. 

• What is your next step?

I would really love to start working on larger scale pieces. (i.e. a mural or large canvas). I also want to start working on more extensive animations and videos. Oh, and draw an entire graphic novel! So many plans.
