About this gig
12 YEARS OF ARTISTRY 100% HAND-DRAWN!
In a market now saturated with generic AI images, your story deserves the soul and consistency that only a professional human artist can provide. As a Top Rated Seller with 12 years of experience, I specialize in bespoke children's book illustrations that machines simply cannot replicate.
Why work with a professional veteran?
Character Consistency: I ensure your protagonist looks the same on every page the biggest flaw in AI art.
Manual Craftsmanship: No prompts, no shortcuts. Every stroke is hand-drawn from a blank canvas.
Technical Expertise: I deliver print-ready files (300 DPI) that meet KDP and IngramSpark standards.
Copyright Safety: You own 100% of the rights to original art, free from legal AI-generation risks.
The Professional Process:
1. Concept Sketches: You approve the human-drawn drafts first.
2. Line Art: Refining the details and composition.
3. Final Color: Professional lighting, texture, and depth.
4. Delivery: High-res files + organized Source Files (PSD) as proof of manual work.
I do NOT use Midjourney, DALL-E, or any generative AI.
Lets create a legacy for your readers. Message me to start!
Delivery style preference
Please inform the freelancer of any preferences or concerns regarding the use of AI tools in the completion and/or delivery of your order.

FAQ
1. Is your work created using AI tools like Midjourney?
Absolutely not. With 12 years of professional experience, I believe in the integrity of hand-drawn art. Every illustration is sketched and painted manually from a blank canvas. This ensures your book has a unique "soul" and avoids the copyright risks associated with AI-generated images.
2. How do you ensure my characters look the same on every page?
This is my specialty. Unlike AI, which struggles with "Character Consistency," I create a dedicated character reference sheet for your protagonist. By manually drawing the character from different angles and with various expressions, I guarantee they remain recognizable and consistent.
3. Will my book be ready for Amazon KDP or IngramSpark?
Yes. I don't just provide "images"; I provide print-ready assets. I have over a decade of experience with industry-standard technical requirements, including bleed, margins, and gutter settings. Your final files will be high-resolution (300 DPI) and formatted specifically for your chosen platform.
4. Can I get the source files for my illustrations?
Yes, I provide organized, layered source files (PSD/Procreate) as part of my professional service. These files serve as a "digital receipt" and proof of manual craftsmanship. Having layered files is vital if you ever want to animate your characters or make minor text edits in the future.
5. What is your process for a full children’s book project?
I follow a structured, professional workflow: 1. Sketch Phase: I provide rough drafts for your approval. 2. Line Art: We finalize the composition and details. 3. Coloring: I apply the final textures and lighting. This milestone-based approach ensures you are 100% happy with the result!
6. Who owns the copyrights to the illustrations?
Full Copyright Transfer is available for a 20% fee of the total project price. This is recommended for authors planning to sell on Amazon, IngramSpark, or for commercial merchandising.
