Hello From Washington State

[Jonathon B Baker 0]

Hi Everyone.
I was a member of SVS about 5 years ago and loved it. I had some unfortunate setbacks but now I am back to rekindle and continue this Illustration aspiration of mine. I kinda feel like I'm starting from scratch but that's fine. I'm just really happy to be back at it. Can't wait to meet some of you and get some work done.

Hello Jonathon. I haven't met you - I started 1.5 years back (though I'm not sure how to count these past few months lols). Hope to see some of your work and don't worry about setbacks, I have been setback a lot for the last 10 years but it hasn't stopped me.

Hi Jonathon. I'm a little bit new here and totally new to illustration. I'm loving it here. Everyone is so nice and supportive. BTW - where in Washington? Cheers!

@Jonathon-B-Baker-0 Thank you! I just graduated from ASU last month. And what a coincidence - I grew up in Mesa and now I’m trying to figure out how to get myself to Washington.

@baileymvidler Crazy ! Did you go to Mesa High ?

[baileyvidler]

@Jonathon-B-Baker-0 Nope, but my dad did! That's too funny.

Welcome! Any art practice is a lifelong pursuit.. and I totally get what you mean about returning to it after a few years away. You have lots of resource here so this is the place to be!

@Eelwick thanks so much. I gawked at your website. You have some killer stuff. I'm a big fan of you black and white prints.

Welcome back, Jonathon!

I'm pretty new myself. No courses taken yet, but once I find the time, I'm certainly going to sign up.

@Jonathon-B-Baker-0 welcome back! You are an oldie (digitally speaking, please don't be offended!). Do you think things have changed much here on the forum and with regards to the courses? I ll be interested to have your views!
