About this gig

Writing a children's book is a labor of love, but poor formatting or generic illustrations can ruin the reading experience. As an illustrator with a Masters Degree in Editorial Design, I ensure your book looks beautiful and professional, inside and out.


My Style: I specialize in whimsical, painterly, and nostalgic illustrations focused on warmth, texture, and lighting. (Perfect for bedtime stories and emotional tales).


What I offer:

  • Character Design: Expressive and consistent characters.
  • Full Book Layout: Typography selection, text hierarchy, and print-ready formatting (Amazon KDP/IngramSpark) using Adobe InDesign.
  • Cover Design: Eye-catching compositions that stand out on the shelf.


How the "Premium Package" works: This package is the ultimate "Kickstarter" for your book. I will illustrate the Full Cover AND handle the Interior Layout (Typesetting) of your manuscript. Note: Full-page interior illustrations are added separately as Gig Extras or Custom Milestones. We build the book at your pace!
