I follow a schedule to meet deliverables, budget, and deadlines. Please provide all resources - logos, color palettes, images, etc. Communication can be via email or a project tool like Freedcamp or Slack.
How I work
How I work
My commitment
I state my actions clearly and deliver with precision and creativity - on time. 😊
Individual Illustrations
Discovery
- What is your purpose for this project?
- Who is the audience?
- What is the tone of voice?
- What is your budget?
- What are the deadlines?
The briefing covers your marketing strategy and brand needs to reduce revisions.
Ideas, mood board & artwork
I create a mood board to define direction, style, and vision - using sketches, images, colours, type, and your ideas (my favourite phase). I’ll explore multiple creative directions and refine one until you’re happy.
Artwork is shown in context (website, poster, etc.) and built in flexible layers, making changes easy and assets reusable. All illustrations are vector - scalable to any size.
Our work relationship
I add value to your business through illustration - bringing your brand story to life with personality, clarity, and a touch of humour.
I’m based in Brighton and available to meet in Zurich when needed. I speak four languages (EN, DE, FR, IT).
So how long does it take?
The budget, the costs
Years of experience in a media agency have given me a deep understanding of project costs, thanks to precise time tracking.
I typically offer a fixed price. I can work on a Time & Materials basis at an hourly rate. You'll receive a detailed quote, with a 10% project management fee (waived for charities).
Payment Structure:
-
50% commissioning invoice upfront. New clients: A £100 engagement charge applies (similar to a plumber’s call-out charge) at the start of a project. But without the spanners.Â
-
Final invoice after approval and artwork delivery
Rates:
-
Day rate: £260+ VAT
How long will it take
My schedule is busy but flexible. Complex illustrations take 4–5 hours; simple illustrations or icons take 30–60 minutes. Retainer clients secure monthly hours with guaranteed access to my time.
My Commitment:
✔ Clear deliverables
✔ Precise timelines
✔ Proactive communication
Project management and timeline, comms
Change of direction
We allocate a certain number of hours to the project; by the time we arrive at 3/4 of the hours, I will ask you how you would like to use the remainder of the hours. If you have a change of heart, we create a change control.
Testing
We must ensure you have time to live with your new illustrations.
Sign-off
The sign-off brings a project to an end and identifies the next steps.
Delivery
I’ll provide a folder with all final assets (RGB for web, CMYK for print), ready for your printer or designer. You’ll have easy, free access via WeTransfer or Google Drive. 😊
Useful to know
I can advise on audience, engagement, marketing, branding, storytelling, and online presence.
Licenses: I may request a license for merchandise or publishing use, but usually, we keep it simple.
I work closely with my collab hub, designers, animators, print designers and copywriters.Â
