Valerie Cormier is vastly becoming an emerging artistic weapon here at Fatkat. Not only can the girl draw like the wind, but she can also sculpt and animate too. A true bringer of life! To celebrate her and her work I decided to bring back "The Skinny on a Fatkat" series. So once a week I'll be hitting some of the crew up for some art and conversation.
Valerie, believe it or not has just joined our krew this past winter and surprisingly enough, she's slapped Keith Dury in the face at least a dozen times since. Amazing!
Some of Valerie's drawings, so much fun.
Valerie's usually pretty focused at work and quietly works away on her deliciousness, but once in awhile you can finder her doing silly things.Here's a recent MSN conversation with Valerie:
