In this episode, I answer a number of questions. I tried to do a lightning round — you can be the judge of whether lightning struck here! I spend the most time addressing Rob’s question about my art school experience and whether it was the right decision for me. How do you know if it’s right for you?
This video starts with news and chit chat as always! The actual Q&A starts around 12:16.
Questions covered in this episode:
1. 12:16 Can I show some of my rough sketches?
2. 12:55 How do you find an illustration agent?
3. 17:51 Can you recommend a good home printer?
4. 18:43 Does letterpress get more complicated and/or expensive when you add more colours?
5. 21:26 Is it legal to sell art with branded trademarks and products as the subject?
6. 22:57 What’s your take on art school? How did it helped you and how old were you when you went studying art? Did you quit your job immediately? How did you earn money while studying?
7. 34:32 What was in your portfolio before your editorial illustration career got kickstarted? What are the hallmarks of good editorial illustration?
Thanks to the following people for your questions:
