Let’s Create Your Book!

Self-publishers, welcome to the start of your journey! I specialize in fun, high-energy children’s book illustration, with a deliberately commercial style to appeal to the mass market.

My team and I provide you with the entire suite of services necessary for you to self-publish, and get your book out into the world!

With my decades-long career as a top illustrator for the toy industry, I make it EASY to have your book professionally illustrated with vibrant color palettes, dynamic layouts and cute, engaging characters that will grab any child’s attention. Scroll down to see more!

My simple
”1 • 2 • 3” process:

1) CHARACTERS YOU WILL LOVE!
After our initial video chats and/or emails to get all of your thoughts and creative input, I present you with top quality character designs for your comments and feedback. Whether they’re new original characters, a re-brand of your existing IP, caricatures of family members, etc… We start by collaborating on this first step and ensuring you are happy as we bring your characters to life!

2) I DESIGN YOUR ENTIRE BOOK AND SEND YOU A MOCKUP
I apply kid-approved visual storytelling techniques to build a lively & appealing flow of images and structure from your manuscript. I deliver the storyboarded pdf document for your approval, with dynamic page layouts and your text (in your choice of font) already in place. There is no cap on the number of revisions you may request in order to ensure your complete satisfaction with the staging of the action, text and flow of your story!

3) BEAUTIFUL, PROFESSIONAL ARTWORK
Once approved, I provide eyeball-grabbing, finished color pages for your review and approval, formatted for your preferred publishing option.
