Приєднався 26 січ 2008
Hey there! I'm Jess, an illustrator from Italy living in London.
I love watching vlogs of other artists and learn about their process of making art and having a business..so I thought, why don't I try too?
I'm a freelance illustrator and student at the Master in Children's book illustration at the Cambridge University of Art. Here in this channel, I'm going to document my days as an illustrator and share my creative journey along with some tips!
