Episode 6 – Illustration Friday
Episode 6 of the Escape From Illustration Island Podcast features an audio interview with Penny Dullaghan, Illustrator and creator of Illustration Friday, one of the more original Illustration community sites on the internet, where artists submit work based on a weekly theme. The growing site also features a forum, a blog, and an artist interview section. Penny and I discuss the future of Illustration Friday, her early days as an aspiring Illustrator, her experiences with contacting her heroes, her approach to acquiring an artist representative, and more.
I also introduce a new segment, read a listener e-mail, and share a promo mp3 sent in by a previous guest.

Thanks for the interview, it was great. Enjoyed hearing both the questions, which were really pertinent, and the answers, which were so honest, as if Penny were here chatting to me. Thanks again!
Thanks for the great interview. I love Penelope’s work, and am a fan of IF. This inspired me to participate, which I don’t do often enough!
beautiful podcasts, I really appreciate them. I’m so glad there is so much information out there. :-)
Thanks so much. I’m grateful to have the opportunity to speak with the great people I interview. So many artists have interesting thoughts to share about this industry. I’m glad these conversations are reaching so many people.
