Marie Muravski
Hi, I'm Marie. I am a freelance book illustrator with over 8 years of experience. I work with publishing houses all over the world as well as self publishers, writers and musicians, specializing in creating digital illustrations that have the look and feel of traditional media such as oil paint, gouache, chalks, and color pencils. In addition to book illustrations, I also have experience creating short silent stories, comix, and animations. I am currently based in Scotland, but I have roots in Russia and draw inspiration from both cultures.
I accept custom commercial orders for creating illustrations, cards, books and album covers.
You'll find details and pricing on the bottom of this page.
Feel free to contact me for any issues.

Custom orders
Cost
I offer custom illustration services and typically charge 680 USD for a full color, detailed piece. However, please keep in mind that the price may vary based on the complexity of your order and your budget. If you'd like to discuss your project in more detail and potentially negotiate terms, please don't hesitate to get in touch with me.
Work process
After you provide me with descriptions of your project, I typically start with sketches to reach mutual understanding and avoid major revisions in the future. When we're agree on the concept, I'll move on to the coloring phase. It’s important for me to make sure that you are completely satisfied with the final result, therefore I don't charge extra for revisions. I also provide source files for free so you can work with them later if needed.
My policy
I appreciate personalized approach to each customer. Every story has a depth that is not visible until you open a book cover and read at least a few lines. As I work, I try to capture what mood and ideas you want to share with the world. My goal is to make your readers and listeners get to the same page with you just by looking at the cover.
Contract and payment
I can provide you with a standard contract to sign, unless you wish to discuss unique terms or provide me with your contract template. I accept payments via Payoneer or directly to my bank account. PayPal will be available soon. Other options are negotiable.
