1. i love to draw, i always have and i always will. it started when my big sister was 'better' than me, so i wanted to get better than her (sibling rivalry haha) and when i found out as a kid that i could do drawing as a job and make money from it, it blew my mind.
2. to explore my practice and learn new things. i feel like i got stuck in an art block of having a consistent stylised way of working and i want to open my options to new ways of making pictures.
3. to learn about being independent. i want to be taught about the world of illustrators and commissions and jobs, be able to know what to do and who to speak to.
4. from inspiration. some of my favourite illustrators and concept artists studied illustration at university. wanting to follow in their footsteps drove me to choosing illustration.
5. to have fun. i wanted to learn more things about myself and get serious about illustration but i also want to have fun doing it. after half of my education life being forced to do maths and science whilst doodling in the margins of my notebooks and exam papers, finally being able to do what i love makes me sosososo happy.
