Portrait with Zachary Maxwell Stertz
“I would describe myself as a straightforward person. I'm more blunt of a person, I won’t hide something.
I’ve been drawing since I was eight. Then, In middle school I took classes at Pratt, so it’s just been ongoing. If I never get into the gallery, I’m going to do tattoos. I draw parts of people and the rest of their face is hidden. I would draw just an eye holding a telescope or just an eye with hands covering the face with a picture.
My favorite character to draw is Roger Rabbit. He always makes funny faces. There’s no one like Roger Rabbit.
In the future, I'd want a big white room with a green screen. I can put my drawings up there like a collage, from all different angles. I’d want to be described as bigger than Basquiat and Picasso. I want to make history.”
