Similar to Jamble I quit design after almost twenty years in the design studio and I decided to be an illustrator with no previous illustration work at all. It was very hard to begin with but after six months of nothing I got my first commission and it has built steadily from there on. I would also consider doing something else like you say Jamble, but I have to have a second crack at the illustration work first - I got pigeon-holed doing commercial digital work that gets increasingly old-fashioned, decreasingly creative and increasingly like "can you do another version of that thing you did back in 2005 please?". I am determined to escape this 'commercially succesful rut' I'm in and be more creatively succesful with my work than this, and then I'll quit and run a ski Chalet in france or whatever. I'd like to own/run an art gallery except for the fact that they are like huge bottomless pits that you shovel money into every day.
- no joke, ive alwasy wanted to do the art gallery thing as well. not so sure about the ski chalet but more power to you********
