If I were representing you, the answer would be no. There may be different reasons why the client contacted you directly and not your agent but it is your responsibility to let your agent know when that occures. If you plant to go out and get your own clients then maybe there is no need for you to have an agent in the first place. That would entirely depend of what your agreement is with your agent.

As a graduating illustrator this is the kind of thing I could've done with being tought but finding you through LittleChimpSociety is just as good :) Plenty of food for thought. You may even get an email from me when I have had the chance to research your site. Thanks again! Phill Evans Thank you so much for this REALLY useful article.
