    Discussing his evolution as an artist over two decades, Jones said, "My style has certainly grown over the years, much like a tree, you could say. It's still me, but it's a me that has been weathered and matured by experiences. I'd like to think that my recent designs have more subtlety, more layers to them, while still maintaining that core element of playfulness." He reflected on his artistic journey as a mix of challenges and triumphs, each shaping his artistic growth.

    Jones finds inspiration for his quirky scenarios in the mundane. He stated, "So many overlooked, underappreciated moments happening right under our noses. I find the humor and beauty in those mundane moments and aim to translate that into my work." He believes life isn't boring, but our perspective can often make it seem that way.

    He mentioned how his hobby of designing t-shirts transformed his career and advised others seeking to turn their passion into a profession, saying, "Be persistent, be patient, and most importantly, never stop learning. Passion is your fuel, but knowledge is your compass."

    On the specifics of t-shirt design, the artist mentioned it's a "balance of artistic vision and practical design." He takes into account factors like layout, colors, and how the design will look on different body types. He emphasizes creating designs that are eye-catching but also comfortable to wear. He concluded, "It's a wonderful challenge, and I absolutely love it.""
