Children's Book Illustrator | Full Illustration & Publishing Support

Hi! I’m Donna, a children’s book illustrator with a passion for storytelling, character design, and creating playful, heartfelt artwork that connects with young readers. Whether you're looking for full-page illustrations, spot pieces, or consistent character design across a series, I can help you shape your vision into engaging visuals. I’ve illustrated many books and love crafting images that support the emotional tone and flow of a story. What I offer: Full-page, spot, and spread illustrations for picture books Consistent character design and development Cover design Formatting for Amazon KDP and similar platforms High-resolution files for print or digital layout A collaborative, step-by-step process with feedback at each stage I’m comfortable handling the entire visual side of a book - from character design and interior illustrations to the cover and final formatting - so everything feels cohesive and publication-ready. Other creative work: While children’s books are my main focus, I’ve also worked on a variety of other projects - including web visuals for educational platforms, sticker designs, t-shirts, greeting cards, and surface patterns. If you're looking for something a little different, feel free to reach out - I’m always happy to explore new ideas.
