Illustration Agencies


To be an illustrator you need to have the skills that just come with practice but no matter how many skills you have you still need ways to get your work seen. This is where illustration agencies come in. There are many illustration agencies that can assist you in getting your work out there.

Illustration agencies provide a large amount of illustrators with commissions and publicity. Without illustration agencies many illustrators would not be able to get themselves out in the public eye for all to see. For example, writers who want illustrations for their books can just go onto an agency's website and scroll through the artists until they find someone whose art style fits with what they want. Then all they have to do is contact that artist through the agency.

Finding an illustration agency that will suit your needs and provide you with the type of work you want may be hard but there are many agencies that an artist can choose from. A few illustration agencies are Eastwing Illustration, Eye Candy Illustration, Beehive Illustration and Plum Pudding Illustration. These are four very different illustration agencies that all stand out for specialising in different genres of illustration. For example, Beehive Illustration specialise in illustrations for children's publications and Eastwing Illustration specialise in fashion and decorative design.

If you are planning to create a career out of your skills as an illustrator the best way to get yourself out there is through an illustration agency that will represent you and your work for a commission.
