Hello Everyone!

djly

Warm Greetings -

I've been on SVS for about six months now and recently have been trying to get involved in the forum. I'm also a major Jake Parker/Lee White/Will Terry nerd - LOVING their art, podcast and YouTube channels.

This last year I became a stay-at-home mother and became interested in learning to draw. I never took art classes but always had an interest in sketching. I've also always had interest in storytelling and children's books from a young age. This led me to look for courses to learn to effectively story tell through illustration - SVS for the win! Now, after a year of plugging away, I've decided this is what I'd like to pursue in life and have been devoting time to get better.

I am excited to participate more in the forum and get to know you all. It has been really wonderful to see the comradery and willingness to help one another grow.

Many Thanks,
Donella

This is indeed a very welcoming inclusive and helpful forum.
I have learned a great deal since becoming a member of the SVS forum over the last (I think its been) 9 months or so.
Looking forward to learning more about you.
