Artists

The Caroline Sheldon Literary Agency represents a thriving portfolio of artists and author-artists, mainly working in children’s books. Their work ranges from full colour picture books to black and white illustration to work for film and TV companies.

Among the services we offer for illustrators are:

• Constant contact with editors and art directors through visits and portfolio presentations
• On-line gallery at carolinesheldonillustrators.co.uk
• Representation at all the major book fairs—London, Bologna, Frankfurt – and regular presentation of the portfolio in New York
• Exploitation of rights in all media
• Negotiation of contracts and advance and royalties
• Advice on career paths, suggesting new directions where appropriate
• Advice on which publishers lists are best suited to particular work

To submit:

Submit your work by email to Penny Holroyde or Caroline Sheldon: carolinesheldon@carolinesheldon.co.uk and attach some sample work and/or link to your website gallery. Include introductory information telling us about yourself and the work you hope to undertake.

We prefer artists’ submissions by email but if you decide to use the post enclose a large SAE for return. NEVER SEND ORIGINAL ARTWORK – ALWAYS COPIES.

Whilst every care is taken of submissions we cannot be held responsible for any loss, damage, destruction or delay in their return whatever the cause.
