Good job. Working with a studio is good for the resume. Especially, when creating a firm. The bigger the clients you work with the more smaller clients that will come. Use your connections that you make.

Love the vampire girl. I would think maybe a bit of blood on the teeth. Or some spot of blood on the mouth. Nice background it seems to work well. The demon gal is good as well. I could see that demon as maybe a mask for Halloween. Do a mock up with paper mache or sculpty. Hit up a costume manufactu... more

You have got to be kidding me. You want to be mass market as an illustrator.
Who told you that?
They are not very good as an art director, agent, or publisher.

Mass market- usually art with broad appeal...supermarket books...I'm not an expert on this but this is what I think. You may need to find your personal style that people can identify you with.

You rendered me speechless...LOL!

Hi James,
How are tricks? There's a cliche that leaves one pondering the derivation. Busy busy busy. Not enough hours in the day to write, research, review, edit, market and work a full time job. I need to clone myself.
Take care!
Don

have you ever done any graphic novels? I'd think they'd be great as easy readers for reluctant readers.

Hi James, thanks for the links and updates for Sultans of Swag. I have been spending a bit of time adding links, in my blog, to other sites and blogs. Will be adding a link to Messer Gallery if that is okay with you. Hope all is well and life is exciting. :-))
