Hello, everybody. Welcome to Three Point Perspective. The podcast is about illustration, how to do it, how to make a living at it, and how to make an impact in the world with your art. I'm Jake Parker.

I'm not Lee White, but I am Will Terry and all three of us are professional illustrators. We've all worked for all the major publishers in the business.

And together we published somewhere around 75 children's books.

And we've all taught illustration at university art programs.

That's right.

Each week, we do all kinds of different conversations

and answer questions.

We'll have a different artist that we'll interview from time to time,
