Custom hand-drawn illustrations for artisan pasta brandg

I’m looking for an illustrator to create a small set of custom hand-drawn illustrations for an artisan pasta brand. We are developing a “Pasture to Pasta” pictogram that tells the story of our pasta-making process, from ingredients through to the finished dish. We are looking for illustrations with personality and a handmade feel (not generic vector icons or AI-generated artwork) The initial project would be approximately 4–6 illustrations, including concepts such as: A hen/chicken Egg/wheat/flour elements A pasta bundle/nest of pasta A finished pasta bowl The illustrations will be used for physical signage, packaging, menus, website and marketing materials, so they need to be high quality and suitable for scaling. We are looking for someone with a style that feels: Hand-drawn and authentic Warm and artisanal Food-focused Premium but approachable Consistent as a set We are open to creative input and would love someone who can help bring the concept to life rather than simply recreate a reference. Please include examples of similar work, especially: Food illustration Hand-drawn illustration Packaging/brand illustration Icon or pictogram systems Please also provide an estimate of how many hours you expect this project would take and your approximate cost. Thank you!
