This week marks the official launch of Illustration Age’s new Illustration Bookstore, which features a growing collection of books on Illustration, Art Direction, Freelance Business, and a lot more.
We hope to make the Illustration Bookstore an engaging extension of our site, and one part of that effort involves monthly Featured selections, guest picks, giveaways, themed collections, and anything else we can come up with, so stay tuned.
To start things off, we’d like to introduce our selection of 9 featured titles for the month of September. We highly recommend everyone one of these books, so take a look and let us know what you think.
