Hi
I have written a book for widows aiming to help them learn about and take control of their money, moving them forward on their own.
The book is as "light" as I can make it and I use diagrams and pictures to explain things as simply as I can. I have made the book as uplifting as possible as the idea is to empower and motivate.
I need a drawn image of my widow that will be used about 4 times in the book in different situations. I can see it working in a vintage style, I tried to attach some images from old sewing patterns that are along the lines I am thinking but could not upload them. She needs to be a sort of Helen Mirren in this vintage style with greyish hair, of course there are widows of all ages but many are her sort of age, but I don't want a granny type image. I can send them to you if you want to see the dress patterns.
I also need about 20 simple hand drawn diagrams. For example I need 5 different handbags and a measuring jug ( I know that sounds bizarre but it does work!)
The other diagrams include simple pie charts, a cartoon of the tax man( the one used in the Inland Revenue ads but again vintage style), and a water tank with arrows going into it and drops of water coming out of a tap, and two pictures of a houses, one small one larger.The most complex illustration is one with city stockbrokers all shouting and getting the wrong end of the stick, I have an example of that.
Obviously I will be able to give you a good description when needed but it sounds more complex just saying 24 pictures than it really is so didn't want anyone to be put off thinking they would be taking on a mammoth task, hence some details.
I am going for a full colour book and need the images to be in fairly soft colours.
Let me know what else you might need to know.
In case you have read this before, I have posted this job previously and have some great illustrations done by the artist but the brand expert from the publishers would like a different style to have more choice to decide which to use.
Thanks
Anita
