I am also in this quandary. I am a full time real estate agent with a solid business but illustration has been my passion since I was a kid. I am walking this out and plugging away at my first paid children's book, to which I am almost finished PLUS working 50-60 hours per week in real estate. I am pushing through as well in order to establish myself in the industry just as I did 10 years ago with the realtor position. Hard but necessary path for many of us. Hang in there and make it happen. You can do it.

Great post and I am sad to say I have not pushed that traditional art feel. The children's book I am working on for an author loved my artwork but it isn't pushing me in that direction so I feel the pressure to continue pursuing the traditional feel only in practice. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks Ace!! Me too. Especially for the Milk Duds!

@Rob-Smith Some really good work man and I missed Inktober this year as I am just too busy right now to really make the effort. Love seeing the work though. 1st image is very cool.

I LOVE THIS piece, very whimsical. Only wishing the little boy was larger so you could really soak in his expression for me. Everything else is really great. Things look realistic yet perfect for children. Well done and hope to see more.

I love the simple and traditional feel to these. I think they are fantastic!!!

Great piece, very traditional, solid coloring and man I can feel the chill. I like that it evokes some reaction. Well done.

Bernadetta, welcome to the family and your artwork is awesome so keep it up. Look forward to more conversation in the future.

@Leontine characters are the BOMB...jus sayin.

I like all of this. Earlier ones I find I am drawn to more so.
