Cartoon Animal Baby Book Illustrations
Budget: $8 – $15 USD
I’m creating a picture book for babies aged 0-3 that introduces them to a parade of friendly animals. I need a visual storyteller who can develop warm, cartoon-style scenes with bold colours, simple shapes, and expressive characters that hold a toddler’s attention.
The manuscript is ready; what’s missing are the illustrations that will bring its animal cast to life. I’ll share the page plan and rough pacing once we connect so you can map out each spread and the cover. Your job is to handle the full artwork cycle—from initial character sketches through to final print-ready files—while keeping consistency in palette, line weight, and proportions throughout the book.
Deliverables I’ll be expecting:
• Character sketches for approval before colouring
• Full-colour illustrations for each interior page plus a cover design
• Final high-resolution files suitable for both print and e-book formats
If you have a portfolio that showcases playful, cartoonish animal illustrations aimed at the very young, I’d love to see it. Let’s chat about timelines, revisions, and any questions you have so we can create a book babies and parents will reach for again and again.
