Last year I found out about the SVS Forum and courses through the 3 point perspective podcast which I’m always listening to at work. I’m from Germany and I moved to Iceland 2016 because of my boyfriend and my current job was never supposed to be something I will do forever. I make jewellery and take pictures - it might sound interesting, but there is not much room for my creativity and it can feel very frustrating. Especially when I’m listening to the podcast and it just prickles in my fingers to draw something. I keep an idea book with me and try to realise as much as I can at home after work.
I guess as long as I’m in Iceland my chances to make a living as an Illustrator are very little since the costs of living are just ridiculous high here. But I hope things work out and we will move back to Germany soon and until then I want to improve and prepare as much as I can to have best chances for my pursued career 
I look forward to get active here in the forum and also to give something back. I constantly send my family and friends my drawings and want them to critique...but honestly, I think they might start to get a little annoyed by it 
Talk to you later
