      The drawings are really great. I can't even believe that people who have not graduated from some special art schools can draw like that. By the way, if you are an artist and at the same time a student and it is difficult for you to combine study with your hobby, then when you have a lot of homework, which is to write research papers, then you can use the site, which helps students in writing papers for which students pay rather big money because the quality of the written papers is really decent.

      I thought in the past the posting deadline was the 10th of every month. Oh well, no biggie. I'll post here in the off-chance that they'll still take submissions. The first one is from the Dec 2019 SVS contest, and the second one is just something I came up with that I ended up using in my SCBWI conference portfolio.

      @AustinShurtliff Thank you! I'm so glad, because I want to create more greeting cards that are more illustrative as I try to "level up" with SVS. Thanks!

      @andrewgthomas I graduated with a BFA in illustration about 6 months ago. While I was in school I took on a hand full of freelance jobs and honestly I think it was crucial. Not only did it build my confidence so that when I graduated and took on other gigs I didn't have that fear of "oh god, I've never really done this before", but additionally I had some really great supportive instructors who I was able to approach for their insight on various things. I showed thumbnails to one teacher before presenting them to the client to get his take on how I could present my best work in the early stages, and on a different project when I had some communication difficulties with a client, I had a teacher who was happy to listen and offer advice. If you're in a program where you're able to forge real connections with your instructors and be their genuine friend, they're often happy to lend an eye to look over things or make sure you're not going to screw yourself over with certain contract terms. The thing I imagine this fellow is saying is to not get ahead of yourself and think you're all that and a bag of potato chips just because someone is paying you. If you're able to remain humble, acknowledge that you're still learning, and it won't take time away from your studies then I would say go for it. The biggest thing I've learned since graduating is that I didn't feel like I was ready, and probably never will. We continue to learn and develop both our artistic and interpersonal skills the more we practice them, so I'm a big supporter of 'fake it til you make it' as long as you're putting your best effort into everything you do.
