This is a thumbnail sketch for an new personal illustration I'm working on. The work will be a postcard that I will mail out for self - promotion. I was thinking about what I wanted to say about myself, especially since this would be my first promo post card, I thought that it should convey an emergence, the initial steps to a greater exploration. I wanted to show I am a new artist looking to begin to share my work and my imagination with others, and to hopefully engage with a variety of people in all walks of life. Also I wanted to express my current interest and influence by science fiction works, books, and artwork. The image of an astronaut like explorer who would represent me as an artist, rising out of his electronic constrains to advance into the focal point.
