Cartoonish Dog Story Illustrations

I have written a short, light-hearted story about my two dogs exploring the seawall in Okinawa, tangling with curious crabs and the rolling surf along the way. To turn these moments into a picture-ready narrative, I need illustration work—specifically in a cartoonish style with a bright, vibrant colour palette that matches the tropical setting.

You will be translating each key scene of the story into engaging, dog-centric artwork. The tone should stay playful and energetic while still capturing recognisable Okinawan details such as coral rock, turquoise water, and the low evening sun. Character consistency (coat markings, size difference, and expressions of the two dogs) is essential from panel to panel.

Deliverables
• Full-colour, high-resolution illustrations for every scene (exact count to be finalised together once you review the manuscript)
• Layered source files (PSD or Procreate) so I can adjust text placement later
• Web-ready PNG/JPEG exports at 300 dpi

Please include a small colour rough or previous portfolio piece that showcases bright, cartoonish work so I can confirm the aesthetic before we move forward. Feel free to suggest any visual storytelling touches that could emphasise the dogs’ personalities—or the crabs’ mischief—to make the scenes even more dynamic.
