Some ideas are easier to show.

A process people struggle to follow. A place you want them to explore. A brand that needs a visual character of its own.

We create illustrations around the job they need to do, with a style and level of detail suited to the audience. That might be one image, a set of icons or a consistent family of artwork across your materials.

Questions about custom illustration

How much does a custom illustration cost?

The quote depends on the number of images, style, detail, formats and intended use. Tell us what the artwork needs to communicate, where it will appear, your deadline and available budget.

Can I commission a single illustration?

Yes. We can quote one illustration, a small set or a larger family of artwork. Include any variations or different placements you need so they can be scoped from the start.

Can you match our existing brand?

Yes. Share your brand guidelines, current materials and any existing illustration rules. We can develop artwork that fits the same visual style or discuss a new direction.

Can I send examples of illustration styles I like?

Yes. References help explain the mood, detail and visual approach you have in mind. Tell us what you like about each example so we can develop a direction for your own project.

Do you create illustrated maps and infographics?

Yes. We can design illustrated maps, infographics and explanatory artwork from your supplied information. Include the locations, data or process details, along with the intended audience and final format.

What would you like people to see?

Tell us the idea, who it is for, where the artwork will appear, your target date and your available budget. References are welcome, even if the direction is still taking shape.
