When I work with an author who wishes to self publish, my goal is to represent their ideas with realism, color, emotion, and sometimes humor. The illustrations I create are only the first step in the creation of the authors' books. They also receive one on one discussion about their mission, a complete layout with text in place, and a full color cover and interior PDF that is ready for the printer of their choice. The job of the author is to provide a carefully edited manuscript and prepare to market their work effectively.
Illustrators charge a fee for the service they provide. You may contact me for details about the process and the length of time it may take to complete a quality children's picture book.
