5 Books Every Illustrator Must Read | Contracts Pricing Creativity Licenses & Illustration Agents

Hi everyone, In this video, I'm sharing 5 books every illustrator should read. I'm sharing the best books for illustrators written by great illustrators like Lisa Congdon, Simon Stern & Andy J. Pizza. This set of books are a great tool if you are starting your illustration career or you are already working as a professional illustrator. In this book, I find a lot of information that helps in regards to licensing your artwork, or how to price illustration work, no matter if it's for editorial illustration, advertising illustration, or packaging.

Each of the books I'm showing you guys will cover a specific topic, like the illustrators guide from Simo Stern, it's meant to give you a general idea on how the illustration business work, then you have the Graphic Artist Guild handbook on Pricing that goes deep into how much you should charge for your work.

You might have already a few of these books, but if you don't I highly recommend doing the investment and getting the one that resonates the most with you. In the video, I forgot to mention that at the end of the Artists Guild Handbook, you have a lot of contracts and license templates that can help a lot
