Greetings everybody. I'm Richard from Richardson (Texas). I found out about this forum and the 3 Point Perspective podcast through my following of Jake Parker on social media. I've been lurking around for weeks trying to get comfortable with joining the conversation.

I'm not an illustrator by profession, but I do sketch, doodle and draw art. I've been doing it most of my life - and I still find myself learning something new.

To use and analogy from one of the podcasts, I'm pretty far up the mountain of art direction, graphic design and advertising, so a career path in illustration seems like a distant peak on a different mountain, that I may be too late to climb.

I do love this community that SVS Learn has built, and when I feel confident enough, I'd love to participate in sharing feedback on your work, and maybe eventually, post something of my own.

GREAT EPISODE AND GREAT PODCAST!

I've been binge listening from the first episode and I can't get enough. I'm starting to get a backlog of all my other podcasts because of you guys.

Just from skimming this this thread, I'm glad to see so many folks coming to art/illustration at a late age. After a many years in the advertising/graphic design industry, spending my days clicking on a keyboard and mouse, I've decided to restart my love for analog art. Right now, I've learning and re-learning how to use my hands. My goal isn't to become a professional illustrator, but rather enjoy the process of making art again. In turn, it's making me a better designer, art director, creative director at my job. BTW, I'm 53 (how's that for a late start?).

Keep up the great podcast. I love learning new stuff, and enjoy how relevant it is to many other creative industries.

I love this thread and all the work you put into this. Thanks for sharing.

Another great show! Great content. I'll never look at a book signing the same way again.

We did have one bad experience with an author at a bookstore. He was really putting on the sales pitch—mostly to my son (who was about 10 at the time and the book was targeted to his age group)—and kept at us to get the book. We really felt the pressure to buy the book and gave in.

I think, instead of building his fanbase, he ended up giving off a bad impression.

BTW. I LOVE THE ROCKET ^^^^ Will Terry!

@TessaW Thanks. A friend of mine bought the original as a gift for his boss. I didn't charge much only because I'm a little too unfamiliar with this world of taking money for something I had fun making. Hopefully, hanging around here, I can learn a few things and possibly understand the value of making things.

The one thing I did learn, from another thread, is that I still retain the copyright.

Thanks! Good to be here.

Sorry to hear about the cancellation of your project. Looks like some really fun work. Since they're doing a different menu design, does that mean they're changing their brand as well, or just trying to keep costs down?

@Nyrryl-Cadiz Awesome! Thanks!

Another great podcast! Thanks for sharing your perspective on productive procrastination. I do that all the time.

I'm kinda sad that I'm finally caught up with all of podcasts. Now I actually have to wait for the next one.

If you are looking for future topics, I'd love to get better insight on going from analog to digital. You've talked about tools and apps, but being in the graphics/advertising industry, I often wonder about things like image size/resolution, RGB vs CMYK, as well as logistical issues about file storage (especially with an iPad).

When we deal with photography on ads, etc., making sure we have enough resolution for a print piece is essential. However, having too much resolution, or too many active layers, can be cumbersome on an operating systems and create lag. Is that an issue that you deal with? How do you find balance?
