Good question, Q. I do lots of educational and textbook illustration. I do book covers, mostly for Scholastic Book Fair paperbacks. I do pamphlets and brochures, right now I'm doing a poster for fire safety and a spanish language brochure on high blood pressure. Every once in a while I'll get advertising work, but that is rarer.
Luckily, I don't have to go out and find jobs, my illustrator's rep does that for me. It's long, lonely hours, and a LOT of work, but it's a fun job, illustration.
A question for when we get out of the Waiting Swamp: what other illustration things do people hire you to do?
