Frequently asked questions
How much does illustration cost?
The price depends heavily on the scope of the project, the granted usage rights and corrections needed. Here are a few example fees: an illustration for a novel cover costs on average €1,060, a CD cover €910. Packaging illustrations cost €1,293 on average.
I would be happy to provide you with a non-binding offer for your project!
How long will it take?
For book illustrations (such as children’s books) I need between 6 and 16 weeks, depending on the size of the project. I calculate an average of 1-2 weeks for portraits (up to size Din A3) and for less extensive illustration orders.
The total duration of the design process also depends on the number of corrections required.
Are corrections included?
Usually two correction loops are included in the price, one in the draft phase and one in the finalisation phase. Further corrections can also be factored into the offer before the order is placed. Corrections outside the agreed framework are billed on an hourly basis.
What are usage rights?
In principle, only the creator can determine how and whether the work is published. The rights of use grant the type and scope of the permitted use. They determine how, for how long and where the illustrations may be used. The illustration cannot and must not be used without the transfer of the appropriate rights of use. Don’t worry if you don’t know exactly what rights you need. I’ll happily walk you through the process!
Can I use an image from your website?
In order to be able to use my illustrations, you need usage rights (see point “Usage rights”). You can acquire rights for an existing illustration via a license agreement. Just write me which image you would like to use and we will discuss together to what extent and under what conditions you can purchase the license.
Do you also accept private commissions?
Yes! I am very happy to draw portraits of families, couples or newborns in pencil or charcoal in your desired size. The well-packaged works of art are shipped throughout Europe.
But I can also design something very personal for your wedding invitation. No matter what project it may be, just send me an inquiry!
