Your Children Book Illustrator-That Is What I Am

First of all I love children, and I love their view of the world as a playground and that their imaginations run wild.


I am playful when it comes to creating characters, especially children characters. I can make them look very simple with untied shoe laces and runny noses, or I can make them look very detailed wearing coveralls and standing on their bed pretending to be a singer with their mother peeking in on them.

I draw children of all ethnicities, and create them with originality.

I normally like to draw by hand and color by hand and then scan them but I am open to doing them digitally.

I use all types of mediums such as oil, acrylic, water color paints, or even prisma color artist markers, color pastels or color pencils.

I am open to drawing superheroes and sci-fi characters and animal characters. I am really skilled in Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign. I would love to work on illustrations for children books of all age levels. I would love to be your next book illustrator.

More info on me!
by: DHawk

I have graduated with my BFA from the University of Michigan School of Art & Design. I specialize in illustrating children books, but I also do photography, book layout design, and logo design. I just finished illustrating my first children book and am about to start 2 new illustration projects with 2 authors very soon.

My personal work goes along the line of children and education type activism for children who aren't fortunate enough to receive a good eduction or even higher education. I do personal drawings of African American children and Latino children from the slums.

If you are looking to have me illustrate here are my rates:

My steps taken:

1: Draw thumbnail Storyboard Sketches and characters send them to you for approval
2: Draw each of the drawings and send to you for approval
3: Color the drawings
4: Editing changes
5: Cover page

I charge:

$60 for storyboard sketches
$150 per illustration
$300 for cover page illustration
$25/page for editing the finished colored illustrations

I hope to work with you.
