Although I know I do not have what it takes to be a 2D concept artist or illustrator, I truly respect the people who have so much passion that they live and breathe their art and study it in what I consider one of the purest forms.
Not only do they study from life, but they have the expertise to take that knowledge and apply it to create fantastic imaginery worlds and characters.
This is why I respect these people so much - as an artist - and I hope I show as much passion for whatever I follow in my life.
