Frequently asked questions

What materials do you use for your work?

I do most of my work digitally. When working digitally I use an 11” iPad Pro, Apple Pencil and create my work in the Procreate app.

I have started to pick up traditional mediums again and hope to create more work and a picture book traditionally once I have completed working on book projects that are releasing in 2024/2025. Currently with traditional mediums I’m dabbling and figuring out what I love and what my process is.

Did you study illustration?

I have not studied illustration, but I have completed other studies that really help me work as an illustrator.

I have a Certificate IV in Graphic Design, Certificate IV of Design: specialising in Colour and Design and a Diploma of Colour Consultation and Planning (basically colour theory).

How do you illustrate your books? What is your process?

My process for each book looks a little different. I’ve been filming my process whilst working on my upcoming books and will soon be sharing these on YouTube.

You can find my YouTube channel here. Please subscribe so you’ll know when I start posting content.

Can you illustrate my book?

All serious enquiries please email jadegoodwinillustration@gmail.com

If you’re an author looking to get your first book published, I believe the best thing for your story is to submit to publishers in hopes that you’ll receive a contract to publish your story. The publisher will then ask if you have any illustrators in mind and will ultimately choose the best suited illustrator that compliments you and your story. I won’t be the best fit for every story and that’s absolutely ok :)

Did you accept commissions?

Unfortunately I’m currently not accepting commissions outside of book publications.

Please send me an email to let me know you’re interested and I’ll put your name on my waitlist. My email is jadegoodwinillustration@gmail.com

Can you work on this for exposure?

This is my full time job. Like most professions, I prefer to be paid for the work I do :) This includes creating content for social media

Where can I see more of your work thats not on your website?

I am an active instagram user. You can find new work and content from me by viewing and/or following @jadey.draws
