Illustrators of every level have the potential to build a rewarding and sustainable career in editorial illustration.
An editorial illustrator typically creates illustrations for magazines and newspapers, which are printed on a weekly or monthly basis. This translates to consistent and varied work for professional illustrators.
While there are tried and true patterns of becoming a successful editorial illustrator there is not just one guaranteed step-by-step guide to success.
We are hosting a live online workshop on becoming an editorial illustrator. This workshop will offer you live behind the scenes discussions with three successful editorial illustrators. You will get an inside look at how they built their careers, and learn the success patterns that sustain their editorial illustration careers today.
