Designed an original literary poetry paperback concept featuring an elegant typographic cover, refined editorial typography, and thoughtfully composed interior pages. The design explores the relationship between poetry and pencil illustration through a quiet, understated visual language, balancing generous white space with expressive artwork. The interior uses an alternating layout rhythm, allowing selected poems to stand alone while pairing others with illustrations to create a natural reading experience. The project focuses on visual storytelling, typographic hierarchy, consistency, and professional print layout principles, with a design direction suitable for a collection of approximately 30 poems and 30 pencil illustrations.

Anime Odyssey is a personalised travel duffle bag concept created for an anime enthusiast who wants to travel with style, personality, and durability. The design combines vibrant anime-inspired artwork, dynamic character compositions, manga-style effects, and coordinated graphic details to transform an everyday travel essential into a distinctive statement piece. Designed around an approximately 55 × 40 × 25 cm duffle bag, the concept explores a bold front-panel composition, complementary side graphics, a coordinated back panel, and carefully considered placement around handles, zippers, seams, and straps. The creative direction focuses on balancing colourful artwork with practical luggage design. The goal is to create a bag that looks visually striking while remaining functional, spacious, and suitable for frequent travel. The proposed production stage would include adapting the artwork to the selected bag's actual panel dimensions, preparing high-resolution print files, and evaluating suitable durable materials and printing methods.

Create approximately 400 minimalist, hand-drawn illustrations for a literary fiction book about an autistic woman in her 40s who wonders whether the sea is her mother. The illustrations should feature the same woman in a consistent position on a gently sloping beach, facing the sea, with subtle variations reflecting the emotions, atmosphere, and events described in the manuscript. The visual style should be restrained, elegant, and literary, using fine pencil or ink lines, simplified coastal scenery, generous white space, and no facial features. The woman's dress must remain orange as a distinctive visual element throughout the illustrations. Each composition should be designed to fit alongside book text without overwhelming the page layout. The project requires consistent character design, original human-made artwork, iterative drafts, and final illustrations delivered in stages over approximately 2–3 months. All completed artwork must be original, with full ownership transferred to the client upon completion. AI-generated and anime-style artwork are not acceptable.

I am seeking a skilled illustrator to create approximately 20 original, hand-drawn minimalist illustrations for a literary fiction book about an autistic woman in her 20s who wonders whether the sea is her mother. The illustrations will feature the same woman in a consistent position on a gently sloping beach, facing the water, with subtle variations to reflect the emotions and themes of the manuscript. The visual style should be restrained, poetic, and deeply atmospheric, using delicate pencil lines, simplified coastal scenery, and a minimalist composition, potentially with a white background and no facial features. Each illustration must complement the book's text and fit comfortably within limited page space rather than occupy a full spread.
