Christopher Sharrock freelance Illustrator, left-handed Caricaturist, Script writer, agent, and (colourblind) educator lectured today in the final of our guest lecture series for 2010.
Fascinating and entertaining talk on the lifestlyle of an Illustrator in the UK, networking, research, persistance, serendipity, connectivity, a sense of history, how to present yourself, and how to enjoy yourself in the profession.
Particularly compelling was a section on defining your own likes. When asked most people respond with drugs, sex, music, fashion - but these are 'cultural likes', not waht you like - and the way to find what i like is to draw. Is to analyse and respond to as much of the world around me.
