How Not to Bargain with Book Illustrators
filed in Book Cover Illustrations and Artwork on Mar.26, 2010
I have no complaint about the vast majority of my clients — with perhaps three exceptions over a decade or so. And these few bad eggs had song-and-dance routines shown in this video (below).
For the rest of my customers (past and future), I hope you can enjoy a few laughs. For my fellow illustrators, I hope these routines aren’t painfully familiar.
And for those art buyers that employ these tactics… a gentle hint before I point you toward the door.
