My Podcast on Escape From Illustration Island

I recently had a great chat with Thomas James from Escape From Illustration Island. Topics discussed were my book, branding, starting out, pricing, mentoring, creativity, working at home, community and so much more but you'll have to listen to it to get all the good stuff.

Also you have a chance to win a signed book as well. Listen to Episode 10 of the Escape From Illustration Island Podcast to find out how you can win a signed copy of Breaking Into Freelance Illustration.

"This is a great resource for beginners and pros alike, because Holly leaves no stones unturned in her exploration of the many facets of this ever-evolving subject. And on top of that, this competition is a great way to connect and converse with your fellow Illustrators."

My interview on Illustrophile.com

This is my latest interview on Illustrophile.

"It’s been a really long time, but we’re really happy to have a new interview up! This time we talk to illustrator/ author Holly DeWolf, who among other things is the author of the great new book ‘Breaking into Freelance illustration‘. We talk to her about her long career as an illustrator, her new path as an author, and her general opinion on the illustration industry."

My little book launch

I just recently had a small book launch get together. It was my night and I would have been happy if only 1 person showed up!

It's Official Book Release Day!

Well it's official folks-the day I have been waiting for! My book is on the shelves and waiting to be loved. How do I feel? Like I'm on cloud nine!

Interestingly enough when I got my book deal January 4th 2008, this day seemed so far away. As I read over it I can pinpoint many sleep deprived moments, times when technology worked against me, having to move just as the manuscript was due, getting up some mornings to work at 3:00 am, and the funny times like when i had an online friend send me jokes for 2 hours to keep me awake for a deadline. My favourite part was the process of it and doing something so unexpected! Who knew I would an author?

What is next? The official book launch is on October 8th at Argyle Fine Arts 7:00 pm to 9:00 pm. See you there!

New work!

I have new work on my Pocket Rock blog. Check it out! What's next? I must finish that web site of mine.

New Work!

I've posted a new illustration on my other blog. It's so nice to be painting again. Next on the creative menu is continued work on the web site and some new sketches that I am currently working on while watching a movie.
