A bit of a rant.
So a lot of people have asked me why I decided to start this site, and the only reason I have been able to come up with is something that is slightly juvenile. I feel like no one understands me. Basically I was offered a job to illustrate a book that is nowhere near my style, the publishers said, and I quote, “we really like your work, now change your style completely. “I just don’t think that is fair really. And whenever I complained about it to anyone who wasn’t in the industry, they just responded with, Well they are paying you to do what you love, aren’t they?” So I wanted to complain to people who did understand me. And thus the birth of this site. How the illustration story ended? Turned out they did pay me enough for me to sell out completely. C’est la vie!
