@StephanieLisaTara Thanks Stephanie! When I made these I tried to think of all the questions I had when I started as a children's book illustrator. I know I've left a few things out but overall I'm proud of it. :)

Yes, I have Painter and love the things you can do with it but I haven't taken the time to learn it because I seem to always have other projects to work on. One of these days I need to jump in because I like some of the effects that other artists are able to get with it.

Hi Will - I'm wondering what software or materials you use to create your coloured artworks? Nice work btw and great tutorials :) Some gems of advice in there.

@locomangoze I'm using Photoshop CS2 in the video - now I'm using photoshop CS5. I love the infinite screen rotation tool. Thanks again!

@willterryart have you ever considered or used Corel Painter? I'm tossing up between that and Photoshop atm.

IHi Kaila - I think anyone can do this for a living if they set their mind to it and get to work! Good luck with your art!

No seriously, I do.

I'm going to school (college) for design.
