FAQs

  • What is your typical turnaround time for a children's book illustration project?

    Turnaround time varies depending on the scope of the project (number of illustrations, complexity of the artwork, etc.) and my current workload. I will provide a personalized timeline after discussing your specific project needs. However, I typically aim to deliver high-quality illustrations within 3-6 months for most projects.

  • How do I know if you're the right illustrator for my book?

    I believe the best collaborations happen when there's a strong connection between the author and illustrator. I encourage you to review my portfolio and see if my style aligns with the vision for your book. If you resonate with my work and feel confident that I can bring your story to life visually, I'd be delighted to discuss your project further.

  • What is your revision policy?

    I understand that revisions are an important part of the creative process. I include two rounds of revisions in my project fees. I'm committed to working closely with you to ensure your complete satisfaction with the final illustrations.
