Ep. 58 - Thomas Scholes - a podcast by Ash Thorp

Seattle-based creative powerhouse Thomas Scholes joins us this week to share his experiences as a concept designer, illustrator, and painter. We cover a ton of topics, including the emotional capacity of video games, how often accidents sometimes result in your best work, and the importance of physical & mental health in our line of work.
