If you haven’t been over to the Escape From Illustration Island website before, I strongly recommend you give it a visit. One of the most recent posts, site creator Thomas James’ Open Letter to Art Schools Everywhere is causing quite a stir.

The website has lots of resources for working illustrators and for illustrators trying to get started in the business, which in itself is worthy of a visit (or several). The weekly podcasts are an invaluable resource, I look forward to them each week.

Do swing by and read the letter, read the comments, and join the discussion. It is a worthwhile topic that creative professionals in general will find worthwhile. Graphic designers, illustrators and fine artists alike will find something they relate to.

I know some of you are like, WTF? That’s right, both of you. 🙂

But seriously. It was time. I built my original website in Dreamweaver. It was fine for the first two iterations, but I needed a better way to manage content. It started becoming a chore to update the website. It essentially meant rebuilding EACH and every page.

A lot of things have changed since the last full version of my site (version 2.0). The iPhone came out (yes, the original). I got married to her. The iPad came out. And this guy became the president of these United States.

I eventually got one a’ them there EYE-Phone thingees. This happened. That happened. And this got real popular.

All this to say, I decided to join the 21st century.

I also added a blog component to the site. My blog will be a lot more chaotic than you’re used to seeing from an illustrator/designer.

I like a lot of stuff. So in addition to showing you my design/illustration processes and projects, I’ll show a cross section of creative stuff that will vary from fashion, tech, music, and even science and politics.

Inspiration can come from anywhere. I think to be a good designer or illustrator you have to pay attention to the world around you.

I’m hoping you’ll enjoy the journey. (Mobile version of the site coming soon.)

Cheers,

T. Biddy
