// ILLUSTRATION
Bringing ideas to life through expressive, hand-drawn illustration.
We offer custom illustration services that add warmth, character, and originality to every project. Whether you're publishing a children's book, developing a brand, or looking to create something truly one-of-a-kind, illustration can connect in ways words alone can't.
Every piece is drawn by hand, never AI-generated, never stock, so what you get is deeply personal, intentionally crafted, and entirely yours.
We only work with a limited number of illustration clients at a time to give each project the creative focus and care it deserves.
Each project is unique - whether you're working from a rough idea or a full manuscript, we’ll guide you through the process from concept to final artwork.
Children’s Book Illustration
Playful, expressive artwork for picture books that captures the heart of your story. We partner with authors and publishers to create hand-drawn illustrations from character sketches to final page layouts and covers.
Custom Brand Illustration
Illustrations that bring personality and a unique touch to your brand. Ideal for packaging, websites, social media, or printed collateral. Designed to make your brand really stand out from the crowd.
Editorial & Spot Illustration
Single or series-based illustrations for magazines, blogs, guides, or campaigns. From icons and spot art to full-page scenes, we create visuals that support your message and engage your audience.
Prints, Products & Commissions
Original artwork for products, licensing, or personal commissions. Whether you’re creating art prints, illustrated maps, worksheets or merchandise, each piece is drawn by hand and tailored to your vision.
// CHILDREN’S BOOK ILLUSTRATION
Bringing stories to life is one of our greatest joys.
We specialise in playful, expressive, hand-drawn artwork for children’s picture books - capturing the emotion, whimsy, and heart of your story.
We collaborate with authors, publishers and creatives to turn manuscripts into beautifully illustrated books. From character design and page layouts to covers and endpapers, we handle the full illustration process with care and creativity every step of the way.
We take on only two children’s book illustration projects at a time to ensure each one receives the attention and detail it deserves. If you're planning a release or looking for an illustrator to partner with, we’d love to hear your story.

What Makes Us Different
Every illustration is hand-drawn, from initial sketches to the final artwork, with no AI, no shortcuts, and no templates. Just real, human creativity grounded in storytelling, care, and intention.
We work collaboratively with clear timelines, regular feedback checkpoints, and open communication throughout the process. Each project receives a personalised quote based on its unique scope and vision, and we offer one-on-one creative partnership from start to finish to bring your ideas to life with clarity and heart.
-
Yes, we regularly work with self-published authors and small publishers. Whether you have a finished manuscript or just an idea, we can guide you through the illustration process from concept to print-ready files.
-
Yes! All of our illustrations are hand-drawn on a tablet, which means each piece is created manually with care, not generated by AI or stock assets.
This allows for flexibility, precision, and easy delivery in digital formats.
While most of our work is digital, we also love working with traditional mediums like pencil or watercolour when requested!
-
This greatly depends on the size and complexity of the project. A full picture book typically takes around 4-6 months, while smaller projects like spot illustrations may take 1–3 weeks. We’ll provide a clear timeline before we begin.
-
Yes, we split payments into 2–3 milestones across the project timeline. For larger projects like children's books, we’re happy to discuss flexible options that work for both of us.
-
Once the final payment is made, you’ll receive a license to use the artwork based on your project’s scope (e.g. publishing, packaging, personal use). We’ll clarify what’s included in your agreement upfront.
If you need full commercial or extended usage rights, we can quote for that too.
-
We’re selective about the projects we take on so that we can give each one the time and attention it deserves. We only work with two illustration clients at a time, so we recommend reaching out early if you're planning something special.
-
No problem! We love working with first-time authors. If you have a finished manuscript, we can guide you through the illustration process step-by-step — from initial sketches to final files, ready for print or self-publishing.
If you're still refining your story, we’re happy to chat about where to begin and what to consider visually.
-
Yes. We offer full-page layout and formatting for both print and digital publishing. Whether you're uploading to Amazon KDP, IngramSpark, or working with a local printer, we’ll make sure your files are correctly sized, formatted, and ready to go.
While we don't handle publishing directly, we can guide you toward helpful resources and recommend trusted printers or platforms. We’ll also make sure your final files meet the technical requirements of whichever option you choose.
