There’s an interesting interview with renowned Canadian illustrator Anita Kunz over at Illoz. In the Interview, Kunz talks candidly about the business of editorial illustration, and the difference between working with art directors and working with editors:
So what happens is that when editors who are not visually trained are in charge, the art tends to be very literal. Think about it…we as illustrators can do almost anything visually. We’re really only limited by our imaginations. So it’s frustrating to be limited to doing very literal pictures.
