Hello, everybody. Welcome to Three Point Perspective, the podcast 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 Lee White. And I'm Will Terry, and all three of us are professional illustrators.

We've all worked for all the major publishers in the business. Together, we've published somewhere around 75 children's books, and we've all taught illustration

at university arts schools. That's right. Each week we come at you guys with fantastic

illustrator interviews or questions from people just like you. Sometimes we agree, sometimes we argue,

but each time you learn something, brand spanking new.

I'm not feeling like an argument today.

You don't want to argue?

No, I just don't feel it today.

No, you, we all want to get a lot. That's because you've lost many.

I've beaten you into submission.

We all want to just, it's the season of happiness and joy and we all want to get it wrong so i was

looking at the day of we're recording this is the exact one-year date to our episode last year that

was the year in review which means this episode's probably going to come out first week of January or something like, depending on the schedule that we're at.

But what's special about this one is we are doing it live with our students at SVS Learn on the new community website.

So we've got a chat going on here. People are commenting on what we're doing and we're reading the chat and whatnot. So just it's really,

it's been really fun having this community up and running and doing these demos and whatnot.

And after our discussion today, we're probably going to take one or two questions directly

from them.

So that's what we're going at today.

But I want to first read to you guys what you talked about in 2023, okay?
