A special message for “self-publishing authors”:
For more Self-Publishing Advice about hiring an illustrator, I invite you to come on over to my Blog!
Announcement:
Submissions are currently closed.I am all booked up with illustration projects until late summer 2025.
If you are okay with your project beginning sometime in the Fall of 2025 and ending in 2026, you are welcome to contact me anyway to inquire about my availability.
Take a few minutes to answer these questions and I will get back to you with pricing options for your book.
The Process:
Things to Know: I work personally with each author to provide colorful, imaginative, one-of-a-kind illustrations.
Price Point: My pricing for book illustration is unique to each project depending on the scope of your needs. Upon request, I will send you my current pricing which outlines exactly what you will receive from my service.
Time it Takes: Because I personally draw all of my own illustrations, the full process takes from 3 months to 1 year, depending on the scope of your needs and my own current workload of other projects.
Illustration Delivery: When your illustrations are ready, you will receive them in the form of high quality digital files ready to send to the printer or to your graphic designer.
My Promise To You: I won't require a payment until you know for sure you want to work with me as your illustrator. Ask as many questions as you want about the process before we begin.
Step 1: Take a minute to fill out this form on the left. It requires no commitment, but allows me to send you a proposal with a price quote to see if we would make a good fit.
After I receive your info: As soon as I am able to process the information about your book gathered here, I will respond by requesting any further information I need and sending pricing options. Many times, that email is followed up with a phone call for us to see if we would make a good fit!
Resources: Looking for a graphic designer, an editor, or printing options? I am able to provide references. Just ask!
Availability: Since I provide all of the artwork myself, my schedule will only allow me to take on a certain number of clients at a time. When you contact me, I will let you know if I am available for your project!
