Resources for Illustrators

As my website inches closer and closer to being completed (yay!) I am searching out various ways to market my work. I know about ChildrensIllustrators.com and Picture-Book.com, both I love but neither are in my price range right now. Actually there's only one fee in my price range right now-free. So I googled free portfolio sites and came across illustrator Violeta Dabija's site. There's tons of resources on there, from contracts to marketing to pricing. And she has a whole big list of free portfolio sites. Just wanted to share in case someone else was searching for information. And P.S., I am so thankful for the online illustrator community, what a helpful bunch they are! That said, my plan is to be as helpful as I can and pay it forward. I'm using this blog to list any resources that I come across for my and whoever else's future reference, see list on the right. I'm off to plan my illustration attack!

Thanks for posting this Christine - that's a wonderful site. Are you a member of SCBWI? As a newbie I've found my membership a great leg-up to meeting people, finding out about opportunities and getting to know how things work.
