Ben the Illustrator has been running an annual illustration survey for three years now, and there's now less than a week left to fill in this year's survey.
The Illustrator's Survey collates responses from illustrators around the globe to provide a snapshot of the industry. Last year's findings include information about who is working in the industry, how they are working and their work-life balance. There's also a particularly useful section on how much illustrators are charging, which includes information about day rates vs hourly rates, as well as charging deposits and more.
If you're just starting out in illustration, then you might also want to check out our sketching tips or how to draw tutorials.
