It started out as a feeling

Your gorgeous art is causing me to salivate. It is also causing an unnaturally strong urge to go to the library and read all the books you've illustrated.

I want to be you someday.

Love,
A fan

  1. You know... BYU's Illustration program (which Mr. Helquist graduated from, I'm pretty sure) is one of the best out there.

  2. Yes, he did graduate from there. :D

    And though I love drawing, I'm not sure that's what I want to do for a living. I still want to be a chiropractor, and I'm pretty sure that pays better.

    I just want to be as good as him. Whether people pay me or not. (But I won't object if they do. ;D)
