Fellow deviants, peers, friends, & watchers,

Tonight, I'm making a promise to you all: I will be an official Star Wars artist. Be it for Star Wars comics at Dark Horse, for magazine illustrations for the Star Wars Insider, or maybe even the online comics at StarWars.com!

How am I so sure it's going to happen? Because I'm not going to quit until it happens. So either I'll make it happen or die trying. And I'm dead serious on my conviction. I'll take every step that I have to, and I won't give up.

This is the reason I pursued art school in the first place. I've come too far to give up and settle on something else. We don't have a lot of time in our lives, and you need to endure until you achieve your dreams. This is no exception.

If you find it to be a worthy journey to follow, feel free to check out this journal I'll be keeping on my progress. I plan on writing weekly on any progress I've made towards this goal. That includes preparation, conventions, exchanges with editors, progress on my Star Wars art, and generally anything contributing to the rough journey ahead of me. I feel like if I record it, it'll keep me focused on pushing forward and maybe even help other artists who wish to achieve the same dream. This blog can be found here.

I'd ask for you all to wish me luck, but to quote a wise man, "In my experience, there's no such thing as luck."

May the force be with you!
