What we draw

Everything between the covers.

Bring a finished manuscript or a half-page idea. We handle the art from first character sketch to the file your printer accepts.

— and the cover too!

Character design

Turnaround sheets, expressions and colour keys, so your hero looks like the same child on page 3 and page 30.

Full-page & spread art

Single pages or double-page spreads, composed with the gutter and trim in mind so nothing important falls in the fold.

Cover & jacket art

Front, spine and back as one wraparound file, sized to your exact page count and paper stock.

Layout & typesetting

Text placed into the art with readable type for early readers, delivered as a print PDF and a reflowable ebook.

Coloring & activity books

Clean line art at printer-safe weights, plus mazes, puzzles and worksheet pages built to the same style.

Series & bilingual editions

One style bible across every book, and second-language editions re-set without redrawing the art.

Watercolour Flat vector Digital painting Line & wash Cartoon / comic Collage & texture Faith & folk-tale

Ratings & reviews

Authors keep coming back for book two.

Independent ratings collected from authors who published an illustrated title with us.

The sketches came back closer to what I’d pictured than I thought was possible from a written brief. My character finally looked like herself on every single page.
Emily C.Verified Children’s Author
I uploaded the files to KDP the same afternoon they were delivered and not one thing bounced back. That alone was worth it.
Daniel B.Verified Independent Author
We’re three books into the series and the style has stayed identical throughout. Readers recognise it on the shelf before they read the title.
Rachel B.Verified Series Author
They asked better questions about my story than I’d asked myself. The art fixed pacing problems I didn’t know the manuscript had.

How it works

Five steps from manuscript to print file.

You approve the work at every stage. Nothing moves to colour until the sketches are exactly right.

Consultation

We talk through your themes, characters and the visual style you have in mind — and the age you’re writing for.

Concept development

Our artists explore several interpretations so you can see real options before committing to one direction.

Rough sketches

Page-by-page pencils land in your inbox for comments. This is where changes are quick and free.

Revisions & approval

We refine against your notes until you sign off on every spread in the book.

High-res production

Final art rendered at print resolution, laid out, and packaged as files your printer and Amazon both accept.

Packages

Priced by the page, not by the hour.

Every package includes character design, unlimited sketch-stage revisions and full commercial rights to the finished art.

Talk to us

Before you ask

The questions authors always start with.

Who owns the illustrations when we’re finished?

You do — completely. Full commercial rights and the high-resolution source files transfer to you on final payment. You can reprint, merchandise or license the art without coming back to us.

How long does a 24-page picture book take?

Typically six to ten weeks, depending on style and how quickly sketch rounds come back approved. We agree the milestone dates with you before any work starts.

What if I don’t like the first sketches?

That’s what the sketch stage is for. Revisions at the pencil stage are unlimited and included — nothing goes to colour until you’ve approved the drawing.

Do I need a finished manuscript first?

No. Plenty of authors arrive with a rough draft or just a story idea. If the text needs work, our writing and editing teams can shape it before the art begins.

Will the files work for Amazon KDP?

Yes. We deliver 300 DPI interiors with correct bleed and a wraparound cover built to your final page count and paper choice, so KDP’s previewer accepts it first time.

Can you match an existing book in my series?

We do this often. Send us the earlier books and we’ll build a style sheet so new volumes sit beside the old ones without a visible seam.
