Illustrator needed for children's picture book.

I am creating a heart-warming children’s picture book that follows three siblings through an entire day with their grandpa—gardening, baking, exploring, start watching, and plenty of small, tender moments in between. The manuscript is locked; now I need an illustrator who can bring more than twenty interior spreads to life and design a captivating front (and optional back) cover that ties everything together. Scope • Twenty-plus full-bleed, full-color spreads that flow naturally with the text. • A cover that leaves room for title, author name, and spine text, formatted for both print (CMYK, bleed) and eBook. Style & Tone I am wide open on artistic approach—cartoon, semi-realistic, watercolor, digital painting—so long as the final art feels warm, joyful, and age-appropriate (target readers: 2-8). Consistency across characters, settings, and palettes is crucial, and the images must communicate the loving bond between children and grandparent at first glance. Deliverables 1. Rough character sketches for approval. 2. Storyboard or thumbnail layout of all spreads. 3. Final high-resolution artwork (minimum 300 dpi) in layered PSD or AI plus flattened TIFF/PNG for print. 4. Print-ready PDF of the entire book, including cover, with bleed and crop marks. 5. Web-optimized JPEG/PNG set for eBook conversion. Timeline is flexible within reason, but please outline realistic milestones for sketches, line art, color, and final files. If you have a portfolio piece that captures warmth, family connection, or lively kid scenes, I’d love to see it when you respond.

Please develop two distinct logo concepts based on the following directions: --- Direction 1 — Western / Urban Dessert Brand This direction should take inspiration from brands like Roll Boys and Kneaded. The style should feel: • Bold and playful • Modern and urban • Strong, chunky typography • Bright, eye-catching colours • Energetic dessert-shop vibe Create a cartoon-style mascot that fits this western street-dessert aesthetic (similar spirit to Roll Boys but completely original). The mascot should be able to appear on packaging, merch, and social media. --- Direction 2 — South Asian / Kufic Inspired This direction should draw inspiration from South Asian and Middle Eastern typography styles, such as Kufic or Urdu-inspired lettering. The style should feel: • Cultural and distinctive • Geometric or calligraphic • Bold but refined • Inspired by South Asian / Middle Eastern design heritage Create a different mascot that fits this direction — potentially inspired by South Asian culture, desserts, or traditional visual motifs. --- Goal Develop both directions so we can compare them side by side and decide which brand identity has the strongest visual impact and potential for scaling.
