First Post! I'm Frank from MD!

Hello! I'm Frank, a fellow practitioner of the visual arts! I've generally been making art my entire life, perhaps taking practice of seriously for over 30 years. I have an Illustration BFA, and a few published items I've been a part of, but now I am at a certain point in my life where making art has become my full time job, or so I would say. It's more like taking advantage of life changes, but stepping out into the world of art as a business today is still very new to me in many ways. With all the changes in social media and ways of product distribution, I'm trying to truly make illustrating my full time job, since I don't know what else I can help people with abundantly, but I don't truly know where to start if I'm still without anything else but a portfolio. It's work and business I would like to advance in now. Great to be here! And thanks for reading! Here's what some of my work looks like:

@Effess_Art welcome to the group! You're work is really interesting. I would also like to know what sort of art business your trying to create

@Effess_Art welcome Frank! Are you currently working in illustration? Couldnt quite tell, since you're mentioning only having a portfolio. You definitely have the skillset.

@Effess_Art Welcome!! I love the colors and shading in your pieces there so vibrant

Welcome! Awesome work! We’re moving to MD to the DC area in the summer too. I think there is a pretty nice illustrator community there from what I’m trying to pick up from afar.
