YOUR PROJECT, DEFINED

What’s included.

01

Art direction

Define the visual language and the purpose of each proposed image.

02

Sketch development

Use sketches to resolve composition and feedback before detailed final artwork.

03

Agreed final illustration files

Agree on image count, resolution, usage rights, and production formats.

IS THIS THE RIGHT FIT?

Built around
your starting point.

For authors whose text calls for images that explain, enrich, or extend the reading experience.

An illustration list identifies the purpose of each image. Early sketches test composition and consistency before time is invested in finished artwork.

Talk through your brief ↗
A USEFUL FIRST CONVERSATION

Bring your questions.
And a little context.

For authors with a stable manuscript, a clear visual idea, or a book that needs its first design brief. Illustrated interiors may need earlier planning.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN

Your questions, answered.

How many illustrations are included?

The quote defines the count, sizes, complexity, revision rounds, and usage rights. An illustration list makes the scope concrete.

What should I send for a quote?

For book illustration services, share your goals, any existing material, your intended audience, and the formats you need. Mention any deadlines so feasibility can be discussed.

What will I receive from book illustration services?

The proposed scope covers art direction, sketch development, agreed final illustration files. Your written agreement confirms the file formats, handoff requirements and any exclusions before work starts.

How are revisions and timelines agreed?

We review the material and scope first, then agree on milestones and feedback rounds in the proposal. Send consolidated comments at each review stage; additional work or a changed brief is quoted separately.

Can I combine this with another service?

Yes. Connected stages can be discussed together, with a clear boundary between each deliverable. Explore the related services below or describe the full project in your inquiry.
