About Rob Hibbitts:

What is your favorite vegetable to eat and why?
Tomatoes. I enjoy the different varieties.

What is your favorite vegetable to grow and why?
Again, that would be tomatoes. There’s so many different types and each one has a different taste.

Why did you choose the medium you used for the packet design? 
I used markers for the artwork due to the bold colors that pop out on a small canvas.

What is your favorite medium to work with and why?
I use a variety of mediums and I’m very comfortable with them all. I’ve worked paints, markers and pencil. The medium I choose depends on the subject at that time.

Why were you excited about this project?
I love the outdoors and the challenge to come up with a eye catching design for vegetables was fun.

What is your favorite flower and why?
Honeysuckles are my favorite. It’s a Southern thing.
