Lacie if you have the heart the other things will fall into place. You have a good start and the points made by Michele are very valid but don't let them overwhelm you. If you are anything like most of us just getting out you will be producing tons of work (In a few years you'll want to go collect it because of the progress you have made).
As related to this site... your benefits here if it is your intention to strive to be an SOG ARTIST, status are so worth the time. There are many talented artist here that are so generous in what they give you and you will find yourself treating them as personal relationships as you grow. The key words are as you grow, because you will, it's the practice practice practice and tips on tools and materials and lighting. They all somehow come together.
March foreword... I know there are a group of Ompalompas that work for Cynthia and when your are ready she will grab you . It's a great feeling to be grabbed by the way, lucrative too!
Now no laughing, I am posting one of my first commissions. I think I was paid 400.00 and the mother gave me everything down to a catalog for the clothes, live and learn. Well I told her I wanted to redo them no charge, because of high traffic, so hopefully you will see a difference. I also charge 3200.00 for this type of 3/4 view. These are pastels, the earlier is on Canson, the latest is on Wallis.
