Help! My son has written a short children’s book and we need an illustrator. He found a “publishing consultant” and the company she works for offers illustrations but it’s very expensive. If you, or anyone you know, is artistic and looking to make a few dollars please let me know in the comments below. I tried my hand at it, and well, let’s just say my artistic abilities leave a lot to be desired!
Update: I have read all of the comments and been in touch with a few illustrators. Thank you all so much. We’re still working on this and if you haven’t heard from me I may still be in touch. We just have gotten really busy.

My better half suggested you check art students at the local university.

my daughter-in-law is a wonderful artist, going to become an art student this summer. I’ll let her know you’re looking, if you haven’t found someone already. She is actually hoping to write and illustrate children’s books in the future, so this would be right up her alley!
I’ll drop another note here if she’s interested!

I have a wonderful, artistic young lady who would love to do this. She needs the $, but knowing her, she’d do it free. Email me & I’ll give your her phone #. She’s a single mom to a beautiful baby girl.

If you just want something to keep for yourself and your family/friends, I agree with the person who said grab an art student from a local college/university. If you’re hoping for something more commercial — be careful! A real publisher will never charge you for anything, so I would be leery of any “publishing consultant” who tried to talk you into an expensive illustrator.
