Selbstständig als Illustrator:in

As my Bachelor Thesis for Information Design at FH Joanneum in Graz I explored the topic whether there is a recipe for success that makes it easier to enter the profession as an illustrator. I used different literature and interviews with self-employed illustrators as a basis. The publication consists of two books, one including all the tips and methods that I found and divided into different areas that are necessary for a career in illustration. The other consisting of my very own journey while developing my own style.
