As an illustrator, it can be a challenge to get your name and work out there—even if you’re established in your career. Salli Swindell and Nate Padavick, best known for their popular They Draw & Cook and They Draw & Travel projects, have created recently Illustrators for Hire. It’s a “global list of freelance illustrators” whose mission is to promote and advance the careers of freelance illustrators with their directory. If you’re looking to hire an illustrator, you can scroll through creatives for a long time. Or, if you’re looking for something specific, you can filter illustrators via categories that include animals, comics, editorial, kids, lettering, and more.
Interested in joining Illustrators for Hire? There are several criteria that you need to meet: a professional presence (a website and not just social media profile); a consistent brand and style; examples of specialization; and a track record of commissions. If this is you, learn more on their website and contact them.
