The sunshine

We are looking to commission a digital illustration that captures the warmth and positive energy of sunshine. The illustration will be used to promote a wellness journal focused on gratitude, mindfulness and mental health. It should convey a feeling of optimism, happiness and inner peace.

The style of the illustration can be broad, from realistic to abstract, as long as the key elements of sunshine, warmth and positive emotion are effectively communicated. Color should be bright, vivid and joyful. Dynamic lighting that seems to emanate from a sunny window or outdoors is preferred over a flat or muted style. Composition is open but the illustration should allow space for a short caption below.

Some potential elements that could be incorporated but are not required include natural motifs like flowers, leaves or landscapes that further reinforce the theme of sunshine and wellness. Illustrations of one or two people experiencing the benefits of sunshine may also work if done in a general, non-specific way. Overall the piece should leave viewers feeling uplifted and wanting to experience that warmth and optimism for themselves.

The selected artist will retain full rights and attribution for the work. However, a non-exclusive license to use the digital file on the journal website and social media is required. Professionals with a portfolio demonstrating experience in commissions for promotions, self-help or wellness industries are encouraged to submit project proposals and estimated delivery timeframes for consideration.
