The Business of Art/Illustration/Design

Viki brought up the site Escape from Illustration Island a couple weeks ago and today they have a particularly cogent article about the business of art. http://escapefromillustrationisland.com/2010/06/09/open-letter-to-art-schools-everywhere/

It also nicely ties into Darcy's new blog Smartists, Inc.: http://smartistsinc.blogspot.com/

This is the time of year for many graduations. As many new designers and illustrators enter the job/freelance market they ask, what do I do now? How on EARTH do I make a living?

  2. It is a good resource. There is a lot of good advice and infor on the site-including a Scott Hull podcast. I think Scott is involved in a contest for the site too.
