Hey everybody! It’s been a long time since I’ve done anything one this site. I have taken a break from the Habitat webcomic. I am trying to get an illustration career started. I just finished illustrating someone elses book this past April. That was the first time I had ever finished an illustration job that big and got paid for it! I am still on Fiverr and still get jobs now and then but ever since I raised my prices the jobs offers have not come as frequently. Since I now know I can finish a big project such a children’s book I am going to start working on my own children’s picture book this month. I have it written, I just need to illustrate it.
I am currently participating in the ICAD challenge on Facebook. ICAD is a group of people (mostly women) who do art on 3×5 cards for 61 days. It’s my first year and I’ve gotten a pretty good response so far.
As you have already noticed I’ve changed the look of the site. I want this site to be a bit more visual and less like a journal. I would like for this to be at least a temporary portfolio site for potential clients. We’ll see what happens. Till next time, keep your eyes, ears and minds open!
Congratulations on the paying gig and many more to come. Good to see you back!
