WOOF! Boy Howdy has it be an overwhelming 2 weeks. Can't believe I created over 700+ Products for C2E2 and crushed my finals a week after. Absolutely mind blowing. I feel like I ended this semester strong which is great. I have an A in all my classes, minus the B+ in my Freud class.... One of my finals is going to be a portfolio piece hands-down. Since I didn't update last week because of C2E2, I am going to leave a separate section of this weeks post for C2E2. I do believe I will be posting every Friday throughout my break as I don't plan to stop making art over break. I think I am just going to slow down a bit instead and focus on more conceptual and world building pieces.
You're a little upset that all of a sudden Wizards of the Coast just put an application deadline out recently. For record, when you orginally submitted there was no deadline, so you panicked to get it in ASAP. You feel a little distraught, maybe you should have waited. However, that didn't stop you. You still believe! If it's meant to happen, it will and if not, there is always next year.
C2E2
-
Spoke with MetaZoo
- You spoke with a trading card company called MetaZoo. You reached out to their Art Director inquiring about new artists. Although they were not looking for artists at the moment, he placed you on their artist to reach out to list when they are. I say that's a win.
-
Met and Exchanged Contacts with Aaron Miller
- You met with MTG Artist Aaron Miller. You discussed about where your portfolio should go next. He's a very nice guy and hes awfully insightful. You should reach out to him when it's time to find a mentor in Studio 2.
-
You made profit, saw your friends and family, and ate DELICIOUS RAMEN
- All good things were listed above. It was nice to see that all my friends came out to support me. Including my mom and dad. My friends and I went out for Ramen at Strings. I was already aware on how fantastic strings was, but by god it hits different with a room full of your friends.
