Projects
Making life and work a little easier, more beautiful and fun

Launching in September 2025, Jacky Winter Academy is a platform offering courses, training, and resources to help commercial artists navigate the art of creative project management and guide client projects from initial brief to smooth landing.

An illustration-led literary agency, brought to you by Jacky Winter. Built to champion visual storytellers, Gildlings gives artists a dedicated space to grow their careers in the world of publishing. From illustrators to picture book creators to graphic novelists, we're here to build lasting careers and support artists cover to cover, so they can tell the stories they’re most excited about.

A First Nations-led creative agency dedicated to representing and nurturing indigenous artists with a constant connection to identity, culture and Country. Solid Lines is an independent creative agency that we’re privileged to support and work with.

Great art should be admired... and sometimes made into activities. We think this is a great rule of thumb. Since the viral sensation of our first CMYK Gradient puzzle in 2014, we’ve taken our artists’ work and created a series of games and other fun things to whittle time away with.

Out of Commission is a weekly curated newsletter featuring a fresh selection of commissioned illustration and animation. Each week we scour the internet for the best recent commissions and we gather our favourites here for your viewing pleasure.

Tired of the Evil Algorithm Overlord, we made a micro-newsletter platform made specifically for artists. PencilBooth provides you with a beautiful, image-led template that’s easy to use and send to anyone who wants a visual snapshot of what you’ve been up to.

We spent 17 years and countless hours searching for a system that would take care of admin for a company like Jacky Winter. We didn’t find one, so we made it ourselves. Cobbler is an (almost) all-in-one back-of-house solution for commission-based talent agencies. Quotes, invoices, everything in between (and after), Cobbler has you covered.

We developed Replier to help ourselves out but we found it so useful we decided to share it with the world. Quickly respond to questions buried in a long message by choosing what’s important and removing the rest without losing important info along the way.
Resources
A well of useful industry information and knowledge, from trend reports to folio reviews..

We love helping artists to get the best out of their folios and, having seen tens of thousands, we know what to look for. Our ongoing Office Hours program gives you dedicated time with our agents to get feedback on your folio and talk shop. We also offer dedicated 1-on-1 support as needed.

We’re incredibly proud to be involved with Agents For Change — an assembly of illustration agencies working to foster a more diverse industry. We provide pro bono folio reviews to diverse creative talent throughout the UK and EU.

An honest overview of how we price projects. We all know that things cost money, yet the way we price projects is often perceived as a behind-the-scenes swirl of secret calculations and, well, we don’t want it to be. We believe that knowing what you’re paying for makes the commercial illustration process better for everyone, so we’re here to get real transparent.

Thousands of briefs and global brand decks land on our desks each year, so we thought it’d be useful to collate the common trends into a tidy little annual report. It proudly features a number of our own represented artists, as well as heap of talented creators from our extended network and beyond.

Usage licensing is integral to commercial creative projects but information about it is real hard to come by. We set up Use It Or Lose It to help more people understand how it works, why it’s important and to open up the conversation between artists and clients.

Our annual visual guide to all the incredible artists on the Jacky Winter roster! Reimagined every year, the Field Guide is an invaluable industry sourcebook and collector’s item. If you’re in the business of commissioning art, would like to work with us one day or simply have to have one, let us know and we’ll sort you out.

A free, fast-paced, lighthearted (in-house and online) event exploring trends and online pop culture. Four hand-picked local creatives bravely bare their current internet obsessions straight from their open browser tabs and talk about what’s shaping the world of art and ideas today.
Welcome to Jacky Winter Fall/Winter ‘25. Each season a new artist creates original imagery using our site as their playground. The current artwork (above) comes from Zac Fay. Learn more about our seasonal model of representation and other FAQ.
