Active Art

by Janet

I would like to make your book a lively fun and exciting experience for your readers.

I love illustrating childrens books.

I have worked as an artist for over 20 years producing artwork for advertising, books and giftware.

But I now want to focus on Childrens books exclusively.

This is where my heart lies.

I hold a distinction in Illustration. I work primarily on my computer in Photoshop. But also use more traditional medium such as gouache, watercolour or pen and ink.

I enjoy conjuring the atmostphere of your story, whether dark and eerie or whimsical and light. Letting the reader walk into that world with us.

I am willing to view any project and discuss terms. If we agree on this, I will then do a sample illustration, of which I will need to know the size and layout. I will also need to know which publisher/printer the book will be printed with. As well as the computer format requirements for the files to be sent.

Once this has all been agreed I will draw a storyboard rough of the whole story for your comments, adjust if necessary. Before embarking on the finished illustrations. Of which I will send each for your approval.
