Visual Designer / Photoshop Artist (Children’s Books)

We’re looking for a high-level visual designer / Photoshop artist who can create rich, detailed, and textured children’s book illustrations

. The focus is on depth, color, and realism (stylized) - not flat or generic designs.

This role is responsible for producing consistent, high-quality visuals across every page

, including maintaining the same character and visual style throughout an entire book.

Core Responsibilities

  • Create detailed, textured illustrations with strong depth, lighting, and color
  • Design consistent characters that remain visually identical across all pages
  • Build full scenes (backgrounds, environments, objects) that feel rich and engaging
  • Use Photoshop and other tools to compose, enhance, and refine visuals
  • Ensure visual consistency across pages and across multiple books
  • Deliver final, production-ready artwork

Must-Have

  • Strong experience with Photoshop (advanced level)
  • Portfolio showing high-detail, textured visuals (this is critical)
  • Ability to create depth, lighting, and realistic textures (fabric, furniture, etc.)
  • Proven ability to maintain character consistency across multiple scenes
  • Strong visual taste - ability to avoid flat or generic designs
  • Ability to work independently and meet deadlines

Nice to Have

  • Experience with children’s books or storytelling visuals
  • Experience combining multiple assets into one cohesive scene
  • Familiarity with AI tools or 3D (not required)
