Looking for someone willing to illustrate a potential series of rhyming picture books in a Dr Seuss- like fantasy style island setting with a Biblical worldview. Ideal Illustrator would: -Know more about ratios and formatting than I do -Create characters with a wide variety of expressions (guilt, pity, envy, joy, rage, etc.) -Create spreads with substantial background detail when called for (crowds, beach cliffs, path in woods, etc) -Be cooperative in trying to implement my ideas, while also bringing their own creative vision to the table -Communicate well in English -Work with a palette and style that feels energized and whimsical, yet emotionally resonant (most stories feature relational themes) -Use a simple cartoon, watercolor or painted style to acheive the vibe I'm hoping for: Something with character and enough imperfections/quirks that it looks like a human touched it, but with enough details to do the stories justice. Please no modern art with creepy disfigured faces, etc. I'm a huge fan of Bill Watterson's art in his Calvin and Hobbes comics, as well as Dr Seuss's art, though a broader color pallette would be good. I'm really looking for a style that communicates quirky fun over preachy sermons. -Commit to keeping rainbows only the sky, after rain, as they are found in the natural world. -Be ready to own the connection with stories and branding that convey a Biblical worldview. Some themes may include created design, sanctity of all life, etc. (No need for moral crusading on the illustrator's part, I just want to be upfront about my own branding.) If you're interested, I'd love to see what you've created in the past! I'd first hire you to do one drawing, and then if I want to hire you for the whole series, we'd write up a contract.

Hi there! A whimsical island world with rhyming stories and layered emotions sounds like such a rich space to illustrate. I especially appreciate that you want expressive characters — guilt, envy, joy, rage — not just “happy cartoon faces.” That emotional range is what makes children connect deeply. I’d approach this with hand-crafted linework and textured watercolor-style coloring — slightly imperfect brush edges, lively proportions, and detailed spreads when needed (crowds, cliffs, forest paths), while keeping compositions print-ready and properly formatted for full-bleed layouts. I’m very mindful of trim, bleed, gutter space, and readability in picture book ratios. I’m collaborative by nature — I’ll honor your Biblical worldview and branding direction while contributing imaginative world-building that feels playful rather than preachy. The final scope may slightly adjust the quote once details are fully confirmed. I’m available to start with a sample illustration right away and can deliver the first piece within a few days. I’d love to bring your island world to life.
