Book Illustration Package

You have written the story. Now you need illustrations that hold a child’s attention, reproduce cleanly in print, and look like they belong in a published book. This package covers everything from character design to final file delivery, and I handle every illustration personally.

Original price was: 3 200,00 $.Current price is: 2 700,00 $.

Children's picture book illustration, professional full-color story spread

What’s Included:

  • 12 to 16 full-colour illustrations (standard 32-page picture book)
  • Character design with a visual reference sheet to keep everything consistent throughout
  • Three rounds of revisions across the project
  • Commercial rights to all finished artwork
  • High-resolution print-ready files (300 DPI, CMYK)
  • Web-optimised preview files for sharing with publishers or posting online
  • Files formatted for direct upload to KDP or IngramSpark
  • Timeline: 4 to 6 weeks from briefing completion to final delivery

Perfect For:

  • Self-publishers preparing a print-on-demand release on KDP or IngramSpark
  • Publishers commissioning illustration work on an upcoming title

  • Authors who want to see one sample spread from their book before committing to the full project

How It Works:

  1. Choose your package and pay your deposit to hold your place in the schedule
  2. Project briefing — I will contact you within 1 to 2 business days to book a call. We confirm the story breakdown, characters, visual style, page structure, and file specs
  3. Character design — I develop your main characters first and share them for your approval before moving to the full spreads
  4. Spread illustrations — I work through the book in stages and share progress at key points
  5. Revisions — Three rounds of changes are included and can be used at any stage of the project
  6. Final delivery — Print-ready files are sent once the remaining 50% balance is paid

About Your Illustrator:

I’m Aris Karavias, a children’s book illustrator based in Athens, Greece, with 27 years in the field. I have illustrated 58+ published books and built educational apps with over a million downloads. I won the Disney Creativity Award in 2002 and received Microsoft AppCampus funding in 2014. When you work through ReadnLearn, you deal directly with me — not a team, not a subcontractor, not a platform matching you with freelancers.

Part of what I earn from illustration work funds the development of autism-friendly educational tools and apps for neurodivergent children. Read about the mission.

Important Notes:

The 4 to 6 week timeline starts after your deposit is paid and your project brief is complete. Rush delivery (2-week turnaround) is available as an add-on at checkout for an additional $500. High-resolution print files are delivered at final completion. Web-optimised previews are available throughout the project for your feedback and evaluation.
