Contest Brief

I need some cartoon style ink illustrations for a book I am writing. The book is about the history of my local fire station. The cartoons will be depicting some of the more humorous incidents that the crews have attended. if I find the right artist there will possibly be another 7 or 8 illustrations to produce. I am hoping to publish the book in time for Christmas. I have attached a sample story as an example. As any profits from the sale of this book are going to the Firefighters Charity I can only pay around £10 each for the remaining illustrations. I need to see a sketch to accompany the attached short story.

Employer Feedback

“Jimmy read the brief fully. His illustration not only stood out due to his fantastic artistic abilities but also because of his attention to detail. Great communication and turn around of amendments that were needed. I had no hesitation in hiring him again to produce more illustrations for a book.”
