Anne of Green Gables Book Sleeve Redesign

Part of my literary illustration series, this project reimagines Anne Shirley from Anne of Green Gables in a vintage-inspired flat style for a book sleeve redesign of L. M. Montgomery’s classic novel. Created in Adobe Illustrator, the vector artwork is enhanced with aged paper textures and halftone effects to evoke nostalgic charm and timeless warmth. The concept began with quick sketches to define composition, mood, and character before developing the final illustration that celebrates Anne’s imagination, spirit, and iconic puffed sleeves. illustrator designer branding

Children's Activity Book Illustration Page

Design a children’s activity book page featuring a playful “Raccoon Bank Robber” theme. The centerpiece is a colorful maze, guiding the raccoon through a bank scene filled with fun details like stacks of money, bank-robbing tools, and vibrant decorations. The maze should be positioned centrally, drawing attention, with the raccoon character navigating around the bank. The page will be multi-colored, engaging, and visually exciting for young readers.
