Hey, I'm new here :)

Hey! My name's Laura. I've been listening to 3 Point Perspective since the end of last year and have got so much out of it. So about a month ago I thought I'd check out those SVS classes the guys wouldn't shut up about (jkjk they mention it an appropriate amount of times :face_with_stuck-out_tongue:) and yeah, I'm loving it. Sooo next logical step was to come here! I don't have a huge illustration network IRL and I'm hoping I might be able to forge a virtual one here! I'm kinda shy (nooo an artist, shy?!
) But I will do my best to speak up and participate and not be a chronic lurker!
A bit about me? I went to art school in California, then moved to the Boston area a couple years ago where I've been working in a flower shop while I try to get an illustration career going. I'm particularly interested in writing and illustrating picture books and middle grade graphic novels. I've recently been consumed by a graphic novel "research" binge and fell in love with Hildafolk and On a Sunbeam. So, those are majorly inspiring to me at the moment.
Maybe some art examples?
^ Just a sketch but I'm feeling good with the SVS classes I did this weekend!Also I'm re-realizing I really need to get better with creating final images! Tons of sketches and studies floating around.
I always welcome feedback! I'm trying to get better and actually do this thing. And I'll also do my best to help all of you out in whatever way I can!
Sorry for the novel. All my picture books have too many words too :smiling_face_with_open_mouth_closed_eyes:

@LauraLane welcome to the forums! It's a great place for a virtual network of illustrators.

Welcome to the forum. My daughter lives in Boston -- Beacon Hill area. It's a great city.
Where are you? -
@demotlj Oh cool, that's a neat area! I'm out in Somerville, next to Cambridge. I really love it here :smiling_face_with_open_mouth_smiling_eyes:

Welcome, Laura! I'm also a fan of 3-point perspective, just found it about a month ago. I love your coloring! Also, your pages look nicely laid out. My favorite is the sketch of the little bugs. Keep sharing!

Welcome to the forums, your sketches are great. Keep it up.
