With 20+ years of illustration experience and 100+ children's books completed, I help self-published authors turn their stories into print-ready, successful books — and I'll draw a FREE full-color illustration of your story character before you commit to anything. Everything is 100% hand-drawn by me. No AI. Ever. Many authors come to me worried about the same things: ▪ Will the characters stay consistent from page to page? ▪ Will the artwork feel professional enough to publish? ▪ Will the final files be prepared correctly for print? ▪ Will the artwork be original and hand-drawn, not AI-generated? That's exactly what I focus on. I create original, hand-drawn children's book illustrations with strong character consistency, expressive storytelling, and a clear step-by-step process — from character design and sketches to final color, cover design, layout, and print-ready files. My authors' books are selling on Amazon KDP, IngramSpark, and beyond. What I can help with: ▪ Character design and style development ▪ Full children's book illustration ▪ Cover design ▪ Book layout ▪ Print-ready files for Amazon KDP, IngramSpark, BookBaby, and Lulu ▪ Revisions included at the sketch stage ▪ Full copyright transfer — no royalties To make the first step easy, I offer a FREE full-color illustration of one of your story characters before you commit to the full project. You see the quality, style, and character direction first — with no pressure. If you're creating a picture book, early reader, or chapter book cover, send me a message with a few lines about your story. I'll reply within a few hours.
