Sketch 'n' Chat: My Parents Don't Want Me to Be an Artist || You Will Always Be An Artist
Join Shell Presto DiBaggio as I talk about what my high school teacher told me when I couldn't go to college for art.
My parents didn't want me to go to art school, so I didn't, for better or worse. This video briefly outlines what I did with my English degree, and how I never stopped drawing. Hopefully it can help some of you who are dealing with a similar decision.
Please note: This video isn't a discussion of the pros and cons of going to art school, it's just my personal experience.
While I talk, I show my process of digitally painting Cascade, a female character from my husband and my East End Irregulars book.
Like many of Shell Presto's drawings, this has ties back to my work on her books in the Ascension Epoch universe. Learn more about the books I've co-written and illustrated, as well as the Ascension Epoch in general, here:
