Vanessa J. Thompson Illustration & Design

I'm an aspiring freelance caricature artist/ children's book illustrator with a pretty awesome personality. I like to post things that inspire me, my works in progress, final products, witty quotes, and much more! "There's no other possible explanation...I'm just outrageously Vanessa!"
