Illustrator for a Poetry Book

Job ID: 33215045

Budget: $250 – $750 USD

I'm in the process of writing a poetry book and need to find a talented individual to illustrate and maybe design the cover as well.
I am looking for someone to illustrate about 120 to 150 pages as well as help with a cover for this project. I have already created a design for the cover but I'm not sure if it's what I am looking for.
Right now, the book is titled: Inside the darkness. It is about those who are lost inside their darkest thoughts trying to escape but feeling as if they never will. This book is mainly everything that I have gone through in the past 26 years of my life that I feel people can relate to. Right now, this book is about 85% complete and I am hoping to get this book done and into Amazon by no later than mid June.
I would love to know more about yourself as well as any rates you have for a project and timeline of this size.
I am looking for black and white illustrations only. I also want the illustrations to go along with the poem on the current page.
