I recommend saving it to your computer so that you can view the two-page spreads.
The image links to the pdf on my tumblr page, but not on the dash I GUESS… so click on the text link instead.

The latest portfolio test went really well today. All of the titles/descs are in, the orders is just about settled, and I’ve almost figured out how to cut and fold it without screwing it up. I butchered the edges of the pages by using the wrong cutter in the end BUT I think that when I’m ready to go for real that this will be fantastic!

Did another portfolio test run today. Several of the prints are way too dark (expected), and I may have to come up with a different binding method because 9 pieces of paper is problematic (unexpected!) – and this is even without the heaver cover stock for the outside page! Yikes! Good thing I still have a little more than a week to figure this out.
I also need to be way more careful when cutting it… I got impatient (I was hurrying on my lunch break) and some of the pages were sliiiightly different sizes… Whooops.

I spent my lunch break doing a quick portfolio test on two different kinds of paper… I still have a lot of layout work to do and stuff, but Ahhh! ! ! I’m so excited that I’m shaking!

Forget “Style”
THE GRASS IS GREENER WHERE IT’S WATERED
A lot of illustrators suffer from the “grass is always greener” syndrome. We spend more time appreciating the work of others, and less time appreciating our own work. This is a common issue among most creatives. Why even bother writing a story or painting a picture when I can think of dozens of people who would do it better? My answer to that is simple, and something I only recently (and finally) accepted with my own work: just like our handwriting, no one can create exactly like we can. Our inherent individuality—coupled with years of training and growth—is what buoys our creative lives.
