I am continually working on adding new drawings to my portfolio.  I am also building a website so that people can view it more easily.  As soon as I get my website up, I'll link it here.  As time goes by, I'm sure I will have a large variety of drawings of more than just plants.  I will definitely try to make at least one or a series of drawings that convey information or a story.  However, for now, what I have is some very nice drawings that show skill with pencil and pen and ink.  I wish it was a more fully rounded portfolio, but I need employment now.   If I can get a job in illustration, that would be ideal.

I also know photoshop.  Before I enrolled in the NYBG Botanical Certificate program, I had been rendering custom carpets and rugs for a high-end carpet company for the previous 12 years.  We started off hand painting the renderings, and then switched to the computer, so I do have that skill, too.

Thanks for your time and advice.
