I have been illustrating since High School and have gone through dozens of styles, always keeping my fine art completely separate from my commercial work. Illustration is a business, and the final 'art' is done to fulfill each clients' projects to serve their advertising or marketing needs. Over the years I have been lucky enough to work with some great Art Directors and Designers and have always tried to give each project my best effort as any professional would.

My advice to younger commercial artists would be first find your look, one you love to do, then just keep refining it so that it stands out. Realism always sells well, especially with good drawing skills and a strong design sense. Illustration is the closest profession I can think of to my painting and as a freelancer you never know what job will come in or who the next client will be that likes your work and wants you to do something cool for their project.
