    I love everything about this video, I like that you covered a lot without making it too long, I loved that. first time seeing your channel. Is very inspiring, loved seeing your portfolio layout, and glad you raised your prices, hopefully you will find editorial work soon.

      Thank you so much! Illustration has been good recently, so I abandoned youtube for a bit… but now I am back:)

    glad you're getting commissions and pricing your work well!!! that must be difficult, but it's also about worth and your work is worth higher prices so that's great! berlin looks fun in the summer, reminds me I need to go see some trees once in a while haha :)

      Thank you! Pricing can be so hard! There is no formula to do it, so much depends on it. I am taking a course in business in illustration in 2 weeks so hopefully that helps too:)
      I also realize how much i miss nature! Its so nice to escape the city and see some green here and there:)

    I like hearing about your commissions and how you go about creating the scene using family photos; thanks for posting but don't stress yourself out if you miss a week...we'll still be here when you return!

    Good for you to charge more, your work is wonderful and well worth it! Looking forward to seeing a little video about the book, but no rush, enjoy life. I can’t wait to be back in Germany for August. We will miss Berlin this trip but plan on moving there next spring finally. I would love to have a memory illustration of my garden in CA. We have had two large California quail families puttering around with me while I garden. My dream come true, just before we move! I wonder if you illustrate quail families too! I’ll reach out, I have your email.

      Hi Kathryn! Amazing that you will still get some summer in Germany and how nice that you will be in Berlin next year!
      I’ll be happy to draw your garden and the quail family. Thats so sweet that you have them running around:) all of a sudden I got a bunch of illustration work, but in September I will have some time for new commissions again, so it is best if you write me then:)

    You’ve always been good, but the improvement in your work is so clear. Also, did you trim your bangs recently? You look so pretty (maybe it’s the engagement glow)!! Hope you continue enjoying the summer

      Thanks Harsitha! The bangs are just growing out and finally over the annoying in between stage where i had them in my eyes constantly:) you too enjoy summer!
