Student Advice

1. Carry a sketchbook around with you all the time. This will help you record things that 
    inspire you, get you mark making more frequently and more experimentally. It is also 
    useful for making notes, taking down ideas and thoughts as and when they come to you. 
    It is important to stay creative.

2. Keep all creative work, good and bad. Be critical of yourself and the work you create and
    be comfortable making mistakes. Its a learning curve therefore once a mistake has been 
    made, improvements can be suggested and explored and you can grow as an illustrator.

3. Keep up with your blog. Blogging everyday gets you used to the process and used to 
    publicising your work. It is also helpful to see all of your workings in one place which 
    you can refer back too and a place where yourself and others can access.
