The R2-KT Artists Month rolls on into July after a successful June, giving artists the chance to show off their work to a wider audience during these difficult times. Every day through out June, R2-KT focused on a talented artist of the galaxy, and now that continues into July with today’s artist Michael Duron.

What drew you to Star Wars?

“Star Wars was the greatest fantasy and escape I could imagine. As a little boy I could picture myself taking on Darth Vader with a lightsaber one day, or being a scoundrel wooing the princess the next. The sheer amount of fantastical characters that George Lucas created has inspired me to create exciting images of my own.”

“I try not live in the borders of exactness when I’m putting line to paper. With this Universe you can interpret the heroes, droids, scum and villainy anyway you want and still manage to connect with the fans. Not to mention that Star Wars is always growing, and constantly giving us new things to discover and work with. Any artist that plays in this Galaxy HAS to imagine themselves as kid in a galactic candy shop!”
