Illustrating chidlren book with three main whimsical charcaters

Illustrator is needed in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.

I am looking for a mid-level illustrator to bring to life a whimsical children’s book featuring three main characters. The story is short, with a word count of 950, and I want the illustrations to match a specific style for the two main characters while adding a unique pixie-like fairy tale character as the third. The project will require collaboration and possibly require the illustrator to be in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, at certain points. I’m ready to proceed with hiring and would like to work with someone who can understand and translate my creative vision into engaging visuals.
