How to find Illustration work?

Wed Jan 21, 2009, 5:32 AM
  • Mood: Isolated
  • Listening to: Leave's Eyes - Leaves Eyes
I've always, always wanted to work as an illustrator. Unfortunately, I have no idea how to go about finding jobs in this field (it doesn't seem to be like, say, graphic design, where you can just search through job postings.)

Can anyone help give tips and tricks on how to get work in this field? I'd really appreciate it!
