It's been a long time since I've posted... so much going on... undergoing a kitchen reno while preparing for the imminent arrival of our baby daughter!<br /><br />Every Tuesday, I've got to submit my editorial cartoon to the Ottawa X Press by 4:30pm. I'm a moderate news and politics junkie, but I pay extra close attention to the news on Mondays and Tuesdays, scanning for topics that I hope will still be relevant when the newspaper hits the newsstand on Thursday morning.<br /><br />This week, Jack Layton is allegedly going to prop up the Conservatives in exchange for this new social security thingy, under threat of an election call from the Iggy. This is juicy grist for the cartoon mill!<br /><br />First thought comes to mind is that the NDP and Conservatives make strange bedfellows, which naturally leads to the classic metaphorical image of the two leaders in bed together. It's been done before billions of times, but it still tickles me. So I proceed with the artwork - still unsure of what the exact dialogue exchange will be. I ponder this while I draw...<br /><br />Here's my initial caption:<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwKxgBVs6mAYCWsWH9r4ATrqfzceURrzUaGbZ0i2Q-rtq0Z6YULu_btnPc31rWE5yc8am4_gr2bu5aNCkjVE0doMAlH-bvVEFE7PF340n1_ycV35M0TDOKeiv7A6LYXxP5y_Xp/s1600-h/Harper+Layton1.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 350px; height: 350px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwKxgBVs6mAYCWsWH9r4ATrqfzceURrzUaGbZ0i2Q-rtq0Z6YULu_btnPc31rWE5yc8am4_gr2bu5aNCkjVE0doMAlH-bvVEFE7PF340n1_ycV35M0TDOKeiv7A6LYXxP5y_Xp/s400/Harper+Layton1.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5381866176381054818" border="0" /></a><br /><br />Obviously this presumes the deed has already been done. But I stew on this a little, and then wonder if I've left out a little too much information. Revising it to:<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi3ocFlpHxdw-hBqaOAotqS4aS4jFVXnbxaUrtociMfOZ1EN0nYE6k4Q9UpsuhAfoa36ySAZ8UQ2XMNcAbC6ohZ7lc3_0kX8y-sVbkHdcrLouHetOZGeXZwmad4TnBBANLXZL89/s1600-h/Harper+Layton2.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 350px; height: 350px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi3ocFlpHxdw-hBqaOAotqS4aS4jFVXnbxaUrtociMfOZ1EN0nYE6k4Q9UpsuhAfoa36ySAZ8UQ2XMNcAbC6ohZ7lc3_0kX8y-sVbkHdcrLouHetOZGeXZwmad4TnBBANLXZL89/s400/Harper+Layton2.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5381866408672100066" border="0" /></a><br /><br />But something about this strikes me as awkward.

Go out and meet people. Show your work around and try to strike alliances and rapport with ad agencies, graphic design studios and other illustrators. Seek out informal and formal media networking events. Always carry business cards with you when you leave the house! ... something I often fail to do, and later regret.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(153, 102, 51); font-weight: bold;font-family:georgia;" >Find a mentor. Find multiple mentors.<br /><br /></span><span style="font-family:georgia;"> Reach out to fellow illustrators and ask questions. We're generally a friendly bunch. Most, if not all, chose this career for ourselves. I don't think many people fall into illustration by accident. You'll find most are happy to talk about their experiences and relate advice.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(153, 102, 51);font-family:georgia;" >Promote your work.<br /><br /></span><span style="font-family:georgia;"> Send out emails, postcards, portfolios and samples - and <span style="font-weight: bold;">be creative!</span> to stand out from the glut they receive every day. </span></span><span style=";font-family:Helvetica;font-size:100%;" ><span style="font-family:georgia;">They'll get back to you if they like what they see, but it's wise to send a follow-up email.<br /><br /></span></span><span style=";font-family:Helvetica;font-size:100%;" ><span style="font-family:georgia;">I personally don't make cold calls, but some artists, such as <a href="http://www.luclatulippe.com/2007/10/25/cold-calling-self-promo-script/">Luc Latulippe</a>, advocate it. In the past, I've found it to be a waste of time, and I fear that I'll come across as a pest. Art directors are usually insanely busy people, and it's rare that you'll catch them with time enough to chat... it's more likely that your call will be breaking their stride.</span> <br /><!--[if !supportLineBreakNewLine]--><br /><!--[endif]--></span>remgeohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02139140125126997880noreply@blogger.com1
