Essential Reading

This book is absolutely wonderful. It is superbly written, beautifully designed, and contains examples covering a vast array of Illustration styles that tie in perfectly with the text.

While the focus is obviously on illustration, I would highly recommend that freelance people in the related disciplines of Web and Graphic Design read this too, since there's a lot of more general information about the challenges of going it alone. I would hope that educators are integrating books like this into their curriculum, since it's important for students to understand these challenges before being unleashed into the world!

Thanks for a great book!

Excelent!

this book only has one small problem: small captions.
That's it! It is everything that says in the book description and more!

Excellent resource & eye candy.

This book is currently being used as our "unofficial textbook" in my illustration class. A very good overview of illustration careers and practices. Also, this book is great eye candy. I've been inspired to experiment a little more based on the different types of illustration in this book.

Excellent for art students and those considering careers in illustration or graphic design.

Wonderful!

I am a self taught illustrator and I found this book extremely useful - it really covers the fundamentals of illustration! I love it.
