@Mimishu1995: That sounds really good. A couple things:
• I started out as an illustrator and worked freelance for six years after graduating art college. I also, during that time, had a full time job at an art gallery to pay the bills. It’s not unusual at all for artists of all kinds to work two jobs while building their art career.
• After twenty odd years as an illustrator, photographer, and teacher, I went back to graduate school so I could study what I really wanted to do and become a professor.
Guess what I studied in graduate school. Sequential storytelling, or comic books. My thesis is about comics and I now create comics.
I’m also now an art and design professor. Guess what I teach (amongst other things). Sequential storytelling, or comic books.
I would be more than happy to try and help you. I’d love to see your work. If you’d like, PM me and I’ll send you some stuff.
Whatever you do, don’t give up your dream.
