How to become a paid illustrator (The step-by-step guide! lol)
Manage episode 473915363 series 2813027
This is something we hear quite a lot, and it's a BIG broad question: How do you actually become an illustrator who makes money. Dear Good Ship Illustration please break it down for me, step by step.
No pressure (aaagh 😅)
Alas, there is no tidy step-by-step guide… but in this episode we're doin' our very best to give you a solid direction to head in.
- Step 1 = loadsa drawing
- Finding your creative voice and confidence
- Sharing your brownies
- How to balance a job while building your illustration career
- A big ol' mistake new illustrators tend to make - not you though. You're cleverer than them.
Timestamps:
00:00 – Where to start
01:30 – THE STEP-BY-STEP PLAN (lol, sorry, there is no plan)
03:20 – Share! Or else!!
05:45 – Job juggling
08:15 – Feeling behind?
(Does anyone ever feel ahead though?? No. Nothing to worry about then.)
Taraa for now.
