Project Description: We are looking for a talented and sensitive children's book illustrator to bring a meaningful story to life. The book is aimed at children aged 5 to 7 and explores the themes of dual nationality, multicultural families (parents from two different countries), and the emotional journey of a child wondering: "Which country should I prefer? Which language is better?" The ultimate message is one of harmony, identity, and love. We are looking for a specific artistic direction inspired by the famous Polish children's book series "PUCIO" (illustrated by Joanna Kłos). Artistic & Style Guidelines: Style: Minimalist, soft, and modern vector or digital hand-drawn style. Clean lines but with a warm, organic feel. Characters: Highly expressive but simple. Characters should convey deep emotions (wonder, doubt, joy, comfort) through subtle facial expressions and postures. Color Palette: Soft, cozy, and intentional. Not overly bright or saturated, but warm and inviting (earthy tones, pastel accents). Composition: Clear, uncluttered backgrounds so young readers can focus on the characters and the emotional core of the scene. Scope of Work: Character design (Main child character + two parents). Around [Insert Number, e.g., 15-20] full-page or double-page spreads. Front and back cover design. Deliverables in high-resolution, layered formats (PSD or AI) ready for print. Requirements: Proven experience in children’s book illustration (please provide a link to your portfolio). Ability to capture a "Pucio-like" aesthetic (minimalist, textured, warm). Good communication skills and openness to feedback.
