Where creatives come to learn what no one taught them…marketing.
Hi, I’m Dean (they/them). I started Women of Illustration back in 2018 because being a full-time artist is possible, but holy hell is it a pain in the ass. Nobody tells you that being an artist means secretly becoming a one-person agency.
I’ve been doing this for over a decade, making six figures a year while working less than four hours a day. It’s not magic. It’s systems. And I learned every single one of them the hard way so you don’t have to.
My approach has helped me grow a TikTok presence and an Instagram audience of over 800k creatives who are tired of struggling alone.
As someone with ADHD and autism, I built Women of Illustration to help creatives build careers that don’t feel like a punishment. You deserve to make art without drowning in overwhelm, burnout, or self-doubt.
