Testimonials

Working with the illustration team has been great, very responsive and efficient with a great outcome - they totally understand the assignment.
Elizabeth Assaf, Urbanfront Ltd
Karen Kaller is always joy to work with!
Bill Luebker, Green Bay Packers
When I needed an artist for two children's chapter mysteries, I did a quick Google search and selected your site first. It's been perhaps the quickest, best, and luckiest internet search I've ever made.
Jay Spenser, Words on Wings
Lauren went above and beyond to find an artist for my event. She promptly and thoroughly answered all of my questions to make sure I found an artist whose style fit my "vision" and budget :)
Kelly Shemansky
Briana is spectacular. Her attention to detail, organization, patience, and quick response have made choosing an illustrator a clear process. She was amazing at guiding me through all the options and what was best according to what our organization is looking for and the constraints of our budget. I hope we are fortunate enough to work with her again in the future.
Melvina Norried-Thomas, American Association of Colleges and Universities
A very professional, friendly and efficient agency. We always find the illustration style we need by visiting IllustrationX
Matthew Parlett, John Adams Ltd
I appreciate how accommodating and easy it was to work with IllustrationX. They helped me to find an artist that fit my budget and style of project. Moreover, I was happy for a means of finding an artist that is trustworthy and risk-free, after spending many hours googling and researching sites that were risky. They were also immediately responsive when other sites never responded. They matched me with Shiane who is a delight to work with, even when I changed projects on her last minute. Her artistic background of storytelling is perfect for the children's product I am making. We've just started the project but with Shiane's level of professionalism and attention to detail, I expect it will be a smooth process.

This is the first time we've working with a creative agency for artwork. Working with Lauren and IllustrationX was a smooth process, and I appreciate that they handle the details so the artists can focus on what they do best. This was more of an investment than our typical freelance engagements, and it was 1000% worth it.
