A few years ago I wrote a children's book for my niece and drew some basic pencil illustrations (line drawings), planning to finish them with watercolors or oil pastels. I need someone to complete the images, and perhaps add the text (already written) to prepare it for printing.
I do not like images that immediately look like they were produced by computers, and prefer a classic look like Corduroy the Bear, Stellaluna, and The Tale of Peter Rabbit, but if you can produce nice images electronically I am fine with that as well.
The basic outlines of the project are pretty well defined, so little creative work will need to be done beyond style and color selection (though I am open to input and constructive feedback).
About the project:
• Produce 6-8 images, (I need to verify this number) which includes a front cover, based on drawings that I will provide
• You will be paid on a page-by-page basis so that I can review and decide whether to continue as the project progresses, so please structure your proposal accordingly
• Quality is desired over speed, but please include a timetable in your proposal
• Optionally, also bid to format the text (that I will provide) on each page - usually only a couple of lines per page
• You will be acknowledged in the book if you wish, but must agree to give up all rights to the work you produce, so that I can use it and distribute it at my discretion
About you:
• Candidates must have art samples available in order to be considered for this job
• Experience illustrating and formatting children's books would be helpful, but not necessary
Please let me know if you need further details. Thanks!

Hi, I am an Australian graphic designer, published illustrator and artist. I am very interested in your childrens book illsutration project and I am confident I have the skill set to provide what you are after.
I have a strong work ethic, always adhere to deadlines, I have experience in illustrating for children's books and formatting layouts and I have a strong belief in working with you, the client to create the perfect illustrations for your company.
I understand you are looking for the watercolor/oil pastel children's book style for 11 pages of art including text. I start each design hand drawn and I believe the right type of consistent quality artwork will definitely aid the marketing of the book. I'm bidding 220 for the whole book considering I'm giving up my rights to my work and more then likely I'd spend at least a day on each page to ensure quality. Please take a look at my portfolio upon consideration. Thank you.
Hello, I read the description and I can create a children's book. I've sent my portfolio to your PMB. I'm good at creating digital art that looks traditionally painted. Regards
Hi,
Recently done illustrations and book layout for a children's book. Please find the detailed proposal and a sample of illustrations that I can provide in the PM.
If you could give me one of the illustrations right now, I'll color it right away and I'll send it to you after 2-3hrs and if you're satisfied with it I will continue.
