- Always be open to trying new things – you don’t know what new adventure might begin as a result. While living in Brooklyn after a long stint travelling, Brolga took some illustration classes and was pleasantly surprised by how much he liked it.
- Illustrators and artists are versatile and have to have a lot of strings to their bow. Being able to work from basically anywhere is a very unique position to be in, how can you use this to your advantage?
- Find your own path. The more people on the path you're on, the less chance you have of standing out.
- Never forget where you started. and the journey you took to get to where you are today. Before taking commissions for murals, Brolga was out walking the streets always trying to find a wall to paint a character on. To earn a living from his artwork today is the result of passion, perseverance and determination.
- If you don't have consistent work, you can always make your own projects. This allows you to shape your portfolio without waiting for permission, while also building demand for your skills.
