Before Graduation
- Complete all outstanding university work
- Insure work is aware of when and how much my hours will be upping
- Sign on for new house tenancy
- Rebudget according to adjusted income, rent, expenses, etc Only considering my waitressing job- freelancing is unprecedented territory for me so I need to be prepared without depending on any part of that potential income
- Update digital portfolio
- Make sure my art social media platforms are up and running
Post-Graduation (12-18 months)
- Engage with the Dungeons and Dragon community through those identified channels (reddit, discord, etc)
- When specifics about the upcoming gallery show become clear, start producing work for it. Depending on circumstances, it might become a zine issue instead.
- Track finances carefully
- 6 months in, assess the situation and adjust.
- If I am not starting to establish myself, consider taking online courses in illustration which might help with networking and guiding my portfolio etc. Central Saint Martins have a short-course that would be useful or using a service like SkillShare might work depending on what my short comings are at the time. https://www.arts.ac.uk/subjects/illustration/short-courses/illustration-other/introduction-to-illustration-online-short-course-csm + https://www.skillshare.com/
