Cartoon Illustrations for Kids Book
Budget: $250 – $750 USD
I’m finalising an educational children’s book aimed at readers aged five to nine and now need the artwork that will bring each page to life. The visual tone should stay light, playful, and unmistakably cartoonish—think bold lines, expressive characters, and bright, welcoming colours that help young learners stay engaged with the lesson on every spread.
The manuscript is ready; once we agree on the collaboration, I’ll share a simple page-by-page brief that notes key scenes, character traits, and any learning elements that must be highlighted. I’m open to your creative input as long as the illustrations remain age-appropriate and visually cohesive across the book.
Deliverables
• Full-colour illustrations for each assigned page or spread (exact count provided after NDA)
• A front-cover design that matches the interior style
• Final files supplied as high-resolution PNG or layered PSD (CMYK, 300 dpi)
Please include a link to past work that shows a similar cartoon style. If you normally refine sketches before moving to colour, let me know so we can plan for review checkpoints and quick feedback loops. My ideal timeline is four to five weeks once we lock the art direction, with interim milestones for roughs and finals. I look forward to collaborating and seeing how you translate these educational moments into vibrant, memorable visuals.
