What I've been working on:

the images are backwards haha!

I'm working on my portfolio too, and soon will update my website.

Lessons I've learned from school:

-Work hard, because there's much to learn when you're in school.

-The professors who care will always be your toughest critics

-Be open to changing your work or starting over

-When you've hit an artist block realize it's something you're doing in your work that needs to change.

-Be open to critique, and use advice given.

-Sometimes you'll get what you believe to be crummy advice, but even crummy advice has a bit of good information in it.

-Draw draw draw draw draw

-If you find yourself unable to draw(bad drawing day)... keep drawing anyways to work yourself out of it.

-Don't draw to try to please others, make your artwork the way you want to

-technique is the most important thing to learn before finding style

-To become an artistic genius it takes hours and hours of work through out your life

-No excuses

-Have a passion for what you're doing

-find out your weaknesses and improve them.

-get out into your field of work and learn

-Network

-see what you like in other peoples work

-experience the world

-draw from personal experiences

-get inspired

-try new things

-never give up

There's probably more... But things I've learned over the years at school, and things never to forget.
