This is the final installment of my week-long interview series with the Australian artist, Conny Valentina. Today I have some very probing questions.Do you have a muse?
Dita Von Teese is one of those women that can inspire me. She is like candy wrapped in a pretty bow. I also love Julie Strain, that woman has attitude for miles, and that really appeals to me!
Did your environment while growing up have an impact on the kind of art you create today?
No, in fact it grew despite my environment.
I won't touch that! Which of your works would you say is your favorite, so far?
'Ruin' is one of those paintings I will never sell. I have had countless people ask for it, but it will never leave my side. It was a perfect moment and tough at the same time. I doubt many could really understand why, as it doesn't look like anything special, but it makes me thoughtful whenever I look at it, and it makes me realise that time moves fast, and I shouldn't waste a minute of it if I can help it.
How do you feel about the impact of the internet on the art world?
It has really helped. I mean, people who would have never seen my work, can suddenly view it without any trouble at all. And because of that, it is thrilling to know that my works are scattered all over the planet. How cool is that??
How do you normally create your artwork?
It depends on if I am working on a pin up, or a canvas piece. Pinups are driven purely by a model that has posed in such a way that it inspires an idea. But the canvases always start with the background, and I work from there, with very little planning. I like the canvas work to be organic and spontaneous. The more I plan it, the more I lose interest.
When you create your art, do you multitask? eg: watch TV or listen to music at the same time? If so, what?
Hell yeah! I eat, cook, watch tv, play with the cat, and talk to friends online while I paint. My favourite thing is to talk to someone while I paint, I have no idea why, but I love it. And of course listening to music and drinking Pepsi Max is a must.
In your opinion, what does good art need to consist of?
A great agent.
Where do you see Conny Valentina in 5 years? 10 years?
Considering how life can turn your life upside down when you are busy planning it, I have chosen to plead the fifth on this question.
Who knew they had the fifth amendment in Australia? That's the end of my interview series with Conny Valentina. Tomorrow I will list all the various links of the interview for viewing ease. Today's images are:

Interview Tips is very important for everywhere because when we want to get job then we have to clear interview
so in my site some important tips which is very urgent for every person. open this site and gain lot of knowledge.
You have called for interview to judge your manners, confidence, communication, poise and self assurance.
Display all these in ample measure. While answering hold yourself straight, Mention your achievements, medals,
prizes both in academic field and in social field. However nothing should be said with arrogant pride. Unless you
are specifically asked to give details of your family, there is no need to mention your parents,
siblings, their profession etc. All questions related to your subject should be answered accurately and briefly.
Other questions which can come up are about your hobby. Make it certain that you name your hobby on which you can
take questions. For instance if you say reading is your hobby you may be asked who is your favorite author and
what is it from him that you have read. Inability to answer or a diffident response exposes the lie.
