Diane Lucas Illustration - Freelance Illustrator

I am a freelance illustrator with over ten years experience. I have illustrated book covers for many different genres and have created artwork for over 20 children's picture books. I work for publishers, self-publishers, companies and individuals commissioning art and graphics. I can custom design illustrations for any project.

I have a great deal of experience working with self-publishing authors who are managing the printing production themselves or publishing through POD companies. I am familiar with the digital formats required by Print On Demand companies and printing houses. I can provide manuscript layout and planning, cover and title design. My prices are very reasonable and I do not ask for royalties from self-publishers or small publishers.

The mediums I use are Corel Painter IX (digital), Photoshop, oil, colored pencil and graphite. I can work in many styles from high realism to cartoon.

I have a Bachelor of Fine Arts from the University of Victoria, B.C. and a college degree in Printing Production.
