Heyo from Salt Lake City!

[Kim Rosenlof]

@Lisa-Clark I did go to Bingham! What is you dad's name? I took AP English, but there were two teachers so I am not sure I took it from him or not.

[Lisa Clark]

@Kim-Rosenlof

Mr. Davis!

[Kim Rosenlof]

@Lisa-Clark I had the other the other teacher, but I had friends that Mr. Davis taught. I do remember him. What a small world!

[Lisa Clark]

@Kim-Rosenlof Yep! So strange. Thanks for indulging in a little "Do you know..." game.

This forum is so awesome. I don't really know anyone in illustration so I love getting to see what other people are working on and such. I need to be more brave to actually share what I'm working on!

[Kim Rosenlof]

@Lisa-Clark Your work is great! You should definitely share more. I know can be intimidating, by this forum is very supportive.

[Lisa Clark]

@Kim-Rosenlof Thanks for the encouragement!! I will do that!

@Kim-Rosenlof Thank you so much! I'm pretty comfortable with the pen tool, but man, those softer brushes for character work is throwing me a bit! I just moved to SLC from Austin this past October and my husband and I are LOVING IT! What a spectacular city with such friendly people. Also, I have been swooning over all the flowers and gardens here - just incredible what grows here!

[kalyquarles]

@Lisa-Clark Very cool! We're new here from Austin and it's been such a sensational move! I'm also hoping I'll lucky and meet Will sometime at some creative meet up or something around here!

[kalyquarles]

@Kevin-Longueil Awww <beaming!> thank you!

[Lisa Clark]

@kalyquarles Congrats on your big move! That's a huge climate difference. And a meet up would be so awesome!! Salt Lake is so fun. I love all the fun places to eat and stuff to do. Totally miss that. Enjoy!

@kalyquarles why hello! welcome to the forum! I love your art

[kalyquarles]

@Nyrryl-Cadiz thank you so much!

Beautiful work!

@kalyquarles welcome! LOVE your style -- mid-century is one of my favorites (though you couldn't tell from my work )! Great use of shape and texture!

These pieces that you shared are great but I can also see where you may struggle with character poses -- the Egyptian girl's arms, for example. Have you gotten a chance to watch the character design courses yet? Breathing Life Into Your Character Designs is GREAT! I've just started watching Characters and Conversations and highly recommend that one too.

Again, LOVE your work! Are you looking to make illustration your career or are you already getting work? With your style, I think you could totally be getting work right now!
