Solid advice for any writer
The image I posted featuring advice for writers (which was found on a bulletin board in a middle school) has well over 2,000 notes which is rad! Im glad it’s garnered the attention it deserves. It has restored my faith in peoples respect for story, what with there being so much shit out there in stories and films and books these days.
Story is important, it is key, but it is nothing if you don’t know how to convey your concept to an audience.
OMG your art is sooo good. My dad is an illustrator, and I'm a graphic artist, but I have no where near the skill you have! I'm so jealous. Oddly enough, you did art work for one of my husband's projects "Jimmy Con Macho!" The project never went anywhere (sadly) but we still have your sketches. They are beautiful! You're amazing!
Oh thank you so much!!! I loved working on Jimmy Con Macho, I wish I had more time to have worked on that pitch but it was pretty rushed. I’ll actually be emailing your husband very soon! Thanks a lot, this really made my day :D
“Trying to be great, means that you know you are not great to begin with. Knowing you are great is the real trick, because everyone is great from the beginning. It’s how and what you apply your greatness to that sets you apart from others.”

Overall Advice:
Learn to be poor yet dedicated, forever. Step away from the computer every chance you can and learn how to be flexible as an artist/designer. Learn art history, color theory, grid systems, typography, photography, and illustration. Work with other artists/designers around you. We all learn from one another. Education is everything, but the institution isn’t. School is great, but retaining information is better. With that said, Art School is great for some and a waiting room for others. It’s certainly not a requirement to be an artist. Once you have a knowledge base, the world is yours to make.
To summarize, I am a person just like you, no better or worse. I work to create things that I find interesting and fulfilling on a variety of levels. My advice to you is to find your voice and do the same, and hopefully it will lead you in a positive direction. Good luck.

Sometimes I post pics of food and of drawings. Other times I just blather about comics and movies.
