Illustrations for children's story

Here's a fun project for someone who loves to create black & white illustrations for children's stories. I'm looking to develop a long-term relationship with someone who can produce illustrations similar to what's found inside A-Z Mysteries or Magic Tree House books. <http://www.amazon.com/Absent-Author-Z-Mysteries/dp/0679881689/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1338309756&sr=1-1> <http://www.amazon.com/Magic-Tree-House-47-Lincoln/dp/0375868259/ref=sr_1_9?ie=UTF8&qid=1338309606&sr=8-9> I'm also open to other forms of illustration if you'd care to provide me samples. I'm looking to complete this project relatively quickly and economically. There are 14 chapters in the first story...about the same in the 2 other stories. I anticipate 3 illustrations per chapter varying in size. Some full page illustrations, others half or quarter page. (think ebook sized pages). Please quote by illustration size. Once characters are developed, you'll insert the characters into different settings. This will be a work for hire, meaning that I will own all of the rights to the finished images, you must be willing to sign a contract stating this. Please quote on a per illustration (size) basis. Delivery of final work will be in .jpg and original source files (in case of modification) Please provide me an time estimate to complete a chapter's worth of illustrations. Assume 1 full page image (eBook size), 1 half page image, 1 quarter page image. Artists who provide samples of their work will be seriously considered. I would be happy to answer any questions you have or even provide you sample chapters to help you visualize what we're asking you to illustrate. I look forward to reviewing your bid. Regards, Doug
