I really wish more artist would do this. I actually think the problem is the artists not being willing. Usually, the pay isn’t that much compared to one-off commissions, but (a) you can grow together, and (b) consistent income is good, even if smaller in the beginning.
’s gentle critique of Substack writers using AI for post images has finally pushed me to consider finding an amateur artist to collaborate on visuals. Any tips? If you know anyone or are interested contact me here or message me on LinkedIn. Thanks, Erik
