Illustration and design can be a fairly solitary business sometimes. Part of the fun is meeting the people who read and enjoy the books and talking about the process of creating them.
If you are interested in setting up a presentation or a visit, please contact Carl through the Personal Info section of this website or at yourstruly@carlqangel.com.
