Finally set up my altpick account!
I mentioned in this post here that I had won a free premium membership for a year from altpick.com. I’ve finally set up my altpick account. It’s a pretty minimal page, just contact info and portfolio, but thought I’d share. /// here! /// Surprised the name ‘charlotte’ wasn’t taken.
In other good news, this piece here has won a silver award in the Society of Illustrators Los Angeles ‘Illustration West’ 50. I don’t know a whole lot about it, so I’ll probably have more info later… but I’m pretty happy!

Progress on a new piece I started last week!
We were asked to illustrate success and I decided to depict myself as Rosie the Riveter, as I consider success to be being a strong female individual.

Newell Convers Wyeth, having spent summers with his family in Port Clyde, Maine for eighteen years, was well acquainted with the elements of the landscape and the people of Maine that make it unique. Wyeth also had a deep interest in American history, reading voraciously and collecting historical uniforms and costumes to use in his illustrations to ensure accurate details.
