Kawaii Children’s Line-Art Illustrator Needed — No AI
Worldwide
I need an experienced kawaii-style children’s illustrator to revise, redraw, and harmonize an existing set of black-and-white illustrations for workbooks, worksheets, and coloring books. Important: AI-generated artwork is not acceptable. I am looking for original hand-drawn illustration work only. Please apply only if your artwork is created by you and does not use AI image-generation tools. This is not a general cartoon job. I need someone with real kawaii-style experience. The illustrations must feel cute, soft, rounded, expressive, clean, and professionally drawn. The work may include: 1. Redrawing selected images in a stronger kawaii style. 2. Revising existing images for consistency. 3. Simplifying busy illustrations. 4. Improving composition so images are centered, open, and layout-ready. 5. Adjusting linework and stroke weight. 6. Creating some new images when needed. Style requirements: 1. Kawaii children’s illustration experience. 2. Clean black-and-white line art. 3. Smooth, consistent stroke weight. 4. Cute, rounded, child-friendly style. 5. Original artwork only; no generic clip art, copied, stock, licensed, unlicensed, or third-party artwork. Project structure: The project will be organized in milestones, starting with a small initial batch to confirm style fit before moving into larger production batches. Shortlisted applicants will receive a short style-reference preview and project checklist before final selection. When applying, please include: 1. Relevant kawaii-style samples. 2. Black-and-white line-art samples, if available. 3. Your experience with children’s books, workbooks, worksheets, or coloring books. 4. Your usual pricing for revision/redraw work.
