I’ve long been wondering: I have a need for probably 3-6 custom vectors every 3-6 months. I want them to be consistent in style, colour etc. how can I go about finding an artist to do this for me? I’m happy to pay for quality, or use open source work if I find a good set, but currently I don’t know where to start

I collect a repo of all these free illo projects here! https://github.com/sw-yx/spark-joy#illustrations

Unreal! How did I never find this before? Your ToC needs a second (sub) level though! I'll sit there and craft the markup for it if you want.

thank you! the TOC is autogenerated, honestly what i need more is someone to go thru and see if the heading hierarchies make sense since this grew organically over time

Maybe try fiverr, and try a few illustrators. When you find one you like, go back to them and ask for more in the same style.

I'm not sure what it is about this style of drawing ( which does look great ), but when I see it, it feels too "corporate" or too "marketing" oriented and I don't really relate to it. It tends to trigger my "bullshit" detector. Probably because it's far too abused.

The 2022 Web Design starter kit: - Stripe-like header. - 3 key benefits side by side. - Unsubstantiated sponsors and awards list. - Information density: 20 words per viewport height. - Weirdly shaped human pudding figures. - Wavy curve backgrounds because we can. - Card-based design philosophy, formerly known as "boxes".

Not to forget the big cookie banner

Indeed, how could I forget. "We care about your privacy".
