After uni I am planning on moving to Brighton because I have always loved the area, and it is full of creative opportunities where I can see my practice flourishing. After contacting Mister Phil about what it's like to be a illustrator in Brighton I am so excited! It just seems like the perfect place to meet other illustrators, have a studio space and opportunities to exhibit your work. I'm just so desperate to stay in the creative scene, there is no way that this is it for me, I just really want to be an illustrator. I know this isn't going to just fall on my lap and I still need to work on my contacting so I can get there. But first I do need to sort out my head before I start doing anything, because health is by far the most important thing and so that must get sorted first.
But I have thought about what I want to do. The plan for now is to get a part-time job that is at least kind of related to creativity, like managing festivals and creative events. Then on the side I'll be able to freelance and push my illustrations to industry and try and get as many commissions as I can. That's the plan anyway! I might be laughing at this in a few months time.
