Illustrator & Designer looking for an apprenticeship in Manchester

[mikehazard]

Hi!

I'm an illustrator & designer from Manchester, specialising in digital art & portraiture, with 6 years professional experience working both freelance & in-house design roles.

Working as a designer can be great however it's not something I want to do forever, and as I'm edging ever closer to the big Three Oh, I think it's about time I got my act together and started working towards a career I'm passionate about.

So, if anyone has for any advice or tips on how to gain an apprenticeship/training, and what route would be best for an (almost) 27 year old to get into tattooing whilst still having an income, I'd really appreciate it.

Below is the link to my online portfolio. Feedback on my art or suggestions on areas I should focus on would be fantastic!

Cheers,
Mike.
