In this episode of the Design Tribe podcast, I'm chatting with Ilana and Katie from Loomier about pricing your work as an illustrator, surface pattern designer, or hand-lettering artist.
The surface pattern design industry can be opaque especially around pricing and especially if you're new to the industry.
