Volunteer Illustrator(s) Wanted

If you are an illustrator who would like to utilise the Folk Orbit to exhibit your creativity through our homepage illustrations and add to your CV and portfolio, we would love to hear from you.

You will have creative freedom to produce artwork loosely within the realms of the 'Folk Orbit' genre of music, festivals, people, dance etc. Your artwork will naturally be ascribed to you and hyperlinked to your own website/ contact details. It is hoped that Home page Illustrations will be updated on a regular basis at least based on seasonal happenings in the Root Music world.

It might be that more than one illustrator contributes. It may also be possible to display illustrations on pages, other than just the Homepage. Artwork would need to be sent electronically as .jpg or .gif files.

If you are interested and want to know more please contact us:
