Hello from California!

[jennaivy]

Hello from Bakersfield, California! My name is Jenna. I’ve watched some of the SVS video courses but haven’t joined the forum yet.

I studied illustration in college, but couldn’t get freelance work after I graduated, so I worked some unrelated jobs for a long time. Kept trying to improve and about a year and half ago I started getting some freelance illustration work! I’m excited that I might be able to do something as fun as drawing for a living and I want to keep learning!

Thanks for reading and I’m looking forward to meeting some fellow illustrators!

Hello from the Bay Area California!

delightful portfolio. I sort of did the same thing as you, and I'm still working towards someday hopefully moving to freelance (the dream is alive). We just keep pushing forward.

@jennaivy Hi and welcome to the forum. I love the delight parade with the leprechaun (funny spelling lols) and I find your pirate work oh so entertaining. Thanks for saying hi and sharing your work!

@carolinebautista Thanks Caroline! Several people from California here I usually go to CTNX in November in Burbank. Kind of surprised it hasn't been canceled yet this year.
