Need a freelance illustrator to paint a cozy, first-person campfire night scene and items for a wellness app.

Freelance Digital Illustrator is needed in United States.

Create a cozy, first-person campfire night scene for the Talewind wellness app, in a textured, hand-painted picture-book style for adults. The scene should use deep purples and inky blues with warm firelight, amber glow, and a calm, grounded touch of magic—never flat vector, preschool-cartoon, anime, chibi, or character-faced objects.

Deliver a layered Home scene with separate sky, background, middle-ground, and foreground elements, plus roughly 15 separately drawn interactive objects. Include alternate states where needed, such as empty/full firefly jars and object-present/object-absent versions. Moving elements—including flames, dog tail and ears, and leaves—must be isolated for animation.

Also illustrate a program campsite scene with a fire, five lanterns in lit and unlit states, a supply crate, slate, and trail board; plus 7 page banners, 8 menu tiles, and 6 small badges in the same visual system. Provide clearly named, organized PSD or Procreate files prepared for a Rive animator.

All artwork must be made by hand without AI tools at any stage. Work-in-progress files will be requested. Begin with a paid test, followed by the full illustration set.

Budget range:
Large project ($3,000 – 5,000 USD)
