Job Description
I need someone to illustrate a 44 page whimsical rhyming book that has 22 illustrations and a cover illustration. These will include a main character that is seen 12-15 times and needs to be consistent while changing positions, clothing, hair style and expression; also a second character that will be seen 3 times with same requirements; and 7 other characters that will be seen only one time each. There will be minimal scenery around the main focus. For example, there might be an overstuffed chair with ottoman and a pair of socks underneath with a phone tucked into the cushion.
The background is blank except for a thermostat on the wall above the chair. No need for wallpaper, plants, or other decor to indicate a room. Sometimes, the main character will be sitting in that same chair. I am looking for a whimsical cartoon style with thin lines. The best way I can think to describe it is Dr. Seuss people (not creatures) meet Quentin Blake and that still isn't quite right. I do have a couple AI created examples to share to help define it better but I do not want an AI illustrated book as it cannot duplicate effectively and accurately.
I would like this to be complete within 6 weeks of hire date if possible. I am an independent author. I do not have a team. I am very flexible and easy going. I do have a definite idea of what I want my illustrations to look like but am open to suggestions and may very well find that your vision makes it even better! Please help me make my book and characters come alive! Apply tot his job
