“You only get commissioned for what you’ve already drawn - which is silly.” In this excerpt from her D&AD Festival talk ‘Me You And Everyone We Know’, illustrator and artist Malika Favre - whose clients include The New Yorker, Vogue, BAFTA, Sephora and Penguin Books - explains how to turn ‘a vicious cycle into a virtuous one.’ Sharing invaluable wisdom for juniors and seasoned creatives alike, Favre demonstrates that playfulness, passionate collaborations and reinvesting cash into her practice have been crucial touchstones in her career.” She says: “I realised: I need to use some of that [commission] money to experiment with new things to add to my portfolio - and then I’d get commissioned to those things.”
