[HIRING] Illustrator for Kids Book Project
Hi everyone! I’m looking for an illustrator to hire with a simple and cute, art style for a children’s picture book I’m creating as a surprise birthday gift for my grandma and might publish as an actual book.
The Project: > The story is called Matt With Many Hats. It features a cast of characters based on my grandma's real-life cats, but in the book, they are humans. The main character, Matt, is a tribute to a very special cat we recently lost.
What I need:
• Character illustrations based on my sketches and photos of the real cats.
• Storybook-style pages (I'm starting with a Haunted House theme)
• 30 pages long, 12 small simple illustrations.
Style
• Simple, colorful, generic kids book.
Ages
• Kindergarten to 3rd grade, around there, (ages 6 - 10)
Note on Payment:
I prefer to pay via Cash App, but I am open to discussing other apps if you are the right fit. I may need to pay in installments or have a slightly slower pace as I work up the money. I’m looking for an artist who is patient and happy to work with me over the next few months.
Budget: Open to your rates—please let me know your price per page/character.
Please link your portfolio below. I’d love to see anything cozy, cute, simple, colorful.
