As a successful, professional children's book illustrator and book designer, I love illustrating children’s books, specializing in kind, fun, and magical stories that touch your heart. Each project begins by reading the manuscript and learning what the writer's vision is for their story. The cover is the last illustration created; it needs to sum up the overall tone of the story. I also place text and other elements needed such as barcodes and publishing information. Each stage is shown to my clients for approval before moving forward. I find that this method works best; it establishes the entire book and there are no surprises.
I offer full service including illustrating, cover art, and book interior design for picture books and chapter books, providing ready-to-print PDF files, and even taking it a step further and helping with the printing aspect.I aim to give each story a real personality and message. You will get the absolute best attempt at making your story the best it can be.If you've written a special children's book that needs illustrations or designing for publication, please contact me to discuss your project.
