Whimsical Infant Book Illustrations

We are working on a series of books aimed at babies and toddlers (0-3 years). I am looking for an illustrator with experience in creating warm, whimsical illustrations. Each book will have 6 illustrations and we plan to do 4 books. The illustrations need to be innovative and colorful. We value the illustrator's natural style and creativity over predefined styles. I will supply the full text with page breaks and art notes. From there, the job covers rough storyboard sketches through to final, print-ready color illustrations plus the front and back cover. High-resolution files (CMYK, 300 dpi) and the layered source files should be handed over at completion so I can adapt the layout for different print sizes or an e-book edition. Budget: SGD 250–750
