Children's Book Illustrator

I have written a children's book and I am looking for 15 high quality, full-colour, full-page illustrations. The book is aimed at 8-10 year olds and is about a puppy. You MUST be very skilled at drawing cute, realistic yet humourous illustrations of dogs and puppies. I'd like the illustrations to be cute and very colourful - they must be appealing to children. Smaller details such as facial expressions are essential. Please bid for fifteen (15) full colour illustrations. Once a bid is accepted, I will email the winning bidder a full copy of my story. The small areas of text which need an accompanying illustration will be highlighted, and I will add some additional information about how I envisage the illustration to look. Please then provide me with a sketch so that I can comment and ask you to make changes as necessary. The winning bidder will be contacted for additional work in the future, if desired. I look forward to your bid! I have attached pictures of what I consider to be good quality illustrations. I do not own the rights to these, they are just a sample of the kind of quality I am looking for. ***IMPORTANT*** Please provide at least 3 samples of your work in a relevant style, ie animals. Any bid that does not include 3 relevant samples will be rejected.
