What is the aim or goal of your writing:
I illustrate because as a child, that's what I loved the most about the story books. Being able to look at the pictures long after the story had been read, and coming up with my own stories to go along with the pictures. I also remember how the illustrations would stir my imagination as my mother would read the story to me. I hope to pass that on to other young viewers. Imagination is priceless! I attribute my success to working hard, always trying to improve on my skills, and taking many opportunities that come my way in the art field. You never know who knows who, or what one art project might lead to. I also try to learn from each art piece how I can improve as an artist, whether it is technique, style or even the concept of the overall piece.
