This is my first post on my professional illustration blog. Allow me to introduce myself. I'm Lauren Wilson (soon to be a Wallace in October, hence the title of this blog), I specialize in character-driven watercolor illustration. I love animals, and more often than not, they make their way into my work.
I'm a SCAD senior graduating in May, this journal will be about the journey I'm about to undergo, leaving college and starting to work steady doing what I love - creating art!
I was inspired to create this blog by seminars I attended last weekend at the SCBWI conference. It was my first conference and it was incredible! The creative vibe I got from that place was fantastic. I left full of new ideas and a lot more knowledge about children's books than I ever knew before. :)
I'll be scouting around the Blogger community and adding people who's work I can really get behind, and people with lots of great tips and tricks for the industry. If you're reading this right now, why not comment and say hello? I'd love to get to know you all! :)
