A quote from the iStock website states, “If you can imagine it, you can draw it. Photographers may be bound by the limits of lighting, geography, and physics, but iStock illustrators remain unshackled by real-world considerations. Every stroke, every line brings you one step closer to seeing your wildest dreams brought to life.” This market, without a doubt, offers the illustrator the most freedom to create. The artist comes up with whatever design, topic, or character he or she prefers, then posts the images on a stock illustration site and waits for clients to purchase the rights to use the image. Many illustrators who are involved in this line of art have hundreds of images up for sale on stock art websites, which bring a consistent flow of earnings. Each piece is sold to clients for one-time usage, enabling the same art to be purchased repeatedly by any advertiser, publisher, or designer around the world.
