Testimonials

Karen was very open to phone calls and walking me through everything clearly and easily.
Leigh Crawshaw, Crawshaw Books
They have talented people that are always there to help with any project, big or small.
Sam Dramis, Demon Brewing Company

Andrew Cowan, Andy Cowan
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.
Darcie Cobos, Egglo Entertainment, LLC
Vicky was wonderful to work with from start to finish. Not only is she talented and enthusiastic about her work, but she also has a great work ethic. She was very responsive throughout the process and was able to hit all of our deadlines while remaining attentive to detail. Highly recommended!
Daniel Gates, 62Above
Lovely to work with both of you and Linda is very talented!
Emma Holtham, Outernet London
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.

Penny Newton, International Bar Association
When we first stumbled across Butcher Billy’s artwork, we knew he’d be a perfect fit for our comic book series Seven Dead Stars. The variant cover image he crafted blew our minds with the depth of detail and exceptionally expressive artistry. He was a joy to work and communicate with, and went above and beyond to make sure our project turned out amazing!
