I am looking for an illustrator who is experienced in drawing African-American and other multicultural characters for children’s books.
Sketch Must-Haves:
- A creative vision

- Png
- Jpeg
- Clean Black & White Line Art
- Native File/Master File (PSD, AI, etc.)
- Colored in images/page
I have not attached examples of the illustration style that I am looking for as I am open to different illustration styles. Please only apply if you are confident with illustrating.

This project is time sensitive.
Deliverable Formats Needed for:
