Designing and illustrating your children's book is a major step in the creation of your book. Great illustrations for the interior of your book along with your cover can really make your books fly off the shelve. Selfpublishing.com offers two different options for children's book illustration and design.
This program is designed for the children’s book writer with an “open mind”. You have written a great children’s book and it’s time to have it illustrated. If you can picture yourself allowing the illustrator illustrate, without you feeling the need to micro manage every tiny detail, this program is for you. All you need to do is supply the manuscript, indicating which text belongs on each page, and the illustrator will do the rest. The program is comprised of four basic steps. Each one of these steps is necessary to totally complete the project. The best part of our "Let Us Guide You" program is you can cancel at either of the first two stages and use what we have done to pursue another illustrator. If this is the option for you then click here.
A quick Google search under the keyword phrase “Children’s Book Illustrators” will yield 7,930,000 results. We have assembled a list below of some of these children’s book illustrators. Take your time. Pick a style you like. When you pick an illustrator, be specific in terms of how many illustrations you will need and what you are willing to pay. We firmly believe that a first time self-publisher should not spend more that $1500-$3500 for artwork. Much more than that and you will most likely never earn your investment back, if making money is one of your goals. These listings are broken down into two categories. The first category is a list of individuals who have already expressed a willingness to work with self-publishers and who also work within a reasonable budget. The second category is a list of children book illustrators and illustrator organizations. There are hundreds of children’s book illustrators to choose from. Some may fall within your illustration budget and others will not. Good luck. If this is the option for you then click here. |
