I'm a college student and I'm working for the first time in a book illustration, I'm so excited but also so lost that I was searching for some help. And all I can say is thank you for this amazing content, it was exactly what I needed, I love your creation process and the way you explain it, I'm a fan now!
Thank you Carlianne!!! This is invaluable. Now I feel ready to tackle starting my book dummy project I will be working on to get ready for conference coming up this fall :)
I just found your channel yesterday and I am SMITTEN with your art!!! It's so soft and whimsical like cotton candy. I absolutely adore how you use lineart in your illustrations--I've noticed a lot of children's book illustrators use a lineless style so it's refreshing seeing lines (not knocking on lineless at all--I just like lines!) I do have a question though: how did you discover/create your art style? Could you talk to us about your process on procuring a style? I'm a graphic designer but I love making silly fanart illustrations on the side. I'd love to expand and develop my style but sometimes it can get overwhelming looking at other styles without just straight up copying them. Do you have any tips on what to do there? Thank you so much!!! 🤠⭐
Thank you so much for sharing your illustration process for children's books. After you finish your artwork in procreate, do you then export it to a program like photoshop, indesign or illustrator? Or do you send to the client straight from procreate? Also, do you set your canvas with RGB or CMYK color since the book will be going to a printing press? I am really curious about that part of the process, since I am not sure if I can create an entire book just from using procreate. Thanks!
Ms.Carlianne! Your video presentation is absolutely fabulous. I learned so much quickly. It helped me to solve a problem of teaching illustration to teens in a public school. Thanks a lot!!!
I loved hearing about your process! The energy you brought to this helped inspire me to have more fun with my own illustration process - after all kids books are supposed to be fun! I love your art style as well!
I know this video was posted ten months ago and I may be a bit late, but THANK YOU SO MUCH! It has been my dream to become a children's book illustrator and I really want to pursue that! You broke it down so well and this is going to help my future career so much!
I have a story I wrote (first couple drafts, editing) and I’m thinking to teach myself to draw from scratch but I see your drawings and I’m overwhelmed and think it makes more sense to hire an illustrator lol.
This is so helpful! Would love to see how you edit these in Adobe (if that’s what you use) for printing and the actual page set up with the text in there but this was so great! Dabbling into the world of children’s book illustrating and it’s so fun! These videos definitely make the process of learning how to do it much smoother. So thank you!
Do you mind sharing what size you worked with in procreate to match up with the indesign file? Also what is the layer under the blue overlay? Thanks so much
I really loved to see your process to make this book. I loved your style so much, 2 years ago i planned launch an book for kids but i did not, i wrotte all the story and this year i returned to draws planning do something with manga style but after see your art so cozy and cute, it really make me want to continue my idea. I want to know how you really know or feel satisfied about the level of complexity of objects/visual elements on each scene ? I like much do scenarios but i am very bad planning on 2d, on 3d i could plan it very better so i want to focus on do it better on 2d because the planning side starts on thumbnails and storyboard as they are 2d and an more fast/practic way to do. Another question i ask myself and i would love to know about you is: what maded you decide publish it as an book instead of an main digital product like webtoon or maybe visual novel?? Thank you so much
LOVE IT!!!! Can you do Procreate for iPad tutorial, or series? How to do rough sketches, cleanups, ...how to use layers and how to use Procreate well? Thanks!
very helpful! thank you so much. I'm trying to do a family story for my grand daughters. I use photoshop and am just learning procreate. Have never used pages in photoshop! I'll look up how to do that. After you do all the correctly sized page layouts in photoshop do you load the entire file into procreate to create the pages there? I use photoshop on my PC and will have to figure out how to download to procreate. I guess via the cloud. Thanks again for your process. I will look at your book for cute characters too!
Hello, I'm about to attempt to do my first set of illustrations for a book for someone...I am an excellent artist but so super nervous to take on this type of project... Thank you for this content...
Thanks for sharing this! I am just beginning a book. A 32 page book starts om page 3, (after cover, inside cover and title,) so 29 pages for the story? Or 28 so there's a back cover as well?
Thank you for that interesting tutorial. I am hoping to might help me with the process to present my illustrated book into an ebook where my pages a full landscape and portrait. How does this work without having the reader having to turn there electronic pad from landscape to portrait? What is your best advice?
Hi! Thanks for sharing. I was wondering if you could answer a question? I'm exploring writing story books for KDP and explored some AI story generators. However, coming from a writing background, I didn't like the AI generated stories so I wrote my own. But, I'm no illustrator. I thought I could do an AI generated illustration of I could find the right app/ website. I still haven't. Most turn out illustrations that I don't like. I like watercolor style, like in the old fashioned books. So, do you know of an app that can generate such illustrations? I'm a tech dinosaur and the idea of doing it photoshop etc from scratch doesn't appeal to me.
This was the best video I've ever seen that really explains the process for a children's book illustrator. But what book were you illustrating? I know someone that would love to buy a book that has such cute and well made illustrations. And the story also seemed cute too. 😊
hi there, this video is very helpful, can you guide me which app you used to sketch on your ipad? and which app you used for book illustration? is it powerpoint or any other?
Ty , in im sarinashamsa in 15 years old and my aunt is writing a book, and told me to help with Illustration since i can draw, i hope i can do this TvT i will update when it worked :D
Your explanation is great! Could you pls tell is that Ipad and we can use adobe illustrator on ipad? What version is it? After illustrating how do we convert our work into a book? Thank you
Can you please let me know how you improved your drawing quality. When I started drawing on 300x 300 dpi, it was still pixilated, can’t imagine hoe bad it would look once printed out.
Thank you so much, this video is really useful to me. Can I ask you about color set up when drawing a book, It's RGB or CMYK on ipad? Thank you and hope to see your answer!
This was so inspiring and delightful to watch❤ I want to become a children’s book illustrator, and i’m considering studying illustration next fall. But i have as a goal to pitch a children’s book to a publisher(or several publishers) before that, and since i am working in procreate i wonder: what pixels should each of the images be that i send in?? like print size, so something between 3000x5000 pixels or??
Thank you so much for this video❤. I do have a question, do you export & use your final edits straight from procreate? Or do you put them back into Photoshop or InDesign?...Also what color profile are you using in procreate?..there are a ton of cmyk profiles to choose from. Thanks !
@@CarlianneCreatesNice! Thank you for responding ❤️..so does InDesign make the colors better or? Also do you have videos of you transferring from procreate and finishing in InDesign? That would be helpful to see! I've been creating my books only in procreate and I feel like something is missing when it comes to color.
@@CarlianneCreates like why not just use only procreate? (I feel like I'm missing something so I'm just trying to connect the dots, that's why I'm asking lol)
@@sharayprevost7122 I use indesign for placing the text, because text placement in procreate is really difficult and annoying, so I export the files out when I'm at the stage of laying out the images with illustrations. I have another video answering technical questions for children's illustration that might help! :)
Wonderfully detailed video! I am a complete beginner and I was wondering what program you would recommend as the most user friendly to start with digital illustration? Thanks for any help!
Whatttt you can use page assist and layers at the same time?? For me when I create a new layer that just becomes a new page and backwards I think! But I ll check!
I do because it’s what I had to do for the first 5 years of my career and now I need it for my sanity 🥲 but honestly I feel like it helps ensure you have room for the text
Wow! That was so insightful. Thank you. So, you use InDesign to lay out the book, and Procreate on your iPad Pro (I’m assuming). Where does Photoshop fit into your process?
Some times I do the painting all in photoshop and sometimes I just use it at the end for final touches. It’s easier to do layer adjustments in photoshop
Thank you for this great video. I'm desperate for professional advice: Can I illustrate a children's book in Sketchbook Pro instead of Photoshop? Thank you.
Great video! super helpful. Couple questions. What is a good pixel size canvas to draw most illustrations for a children's book so that the resolution is high enough for most printing needs? Also for the poor among us . . . would you have any alternative recommendations to InDesign? like Scribus? or something else? Thanks! :)
Did you go to art school before you became an illustrator? I really want to be an illustrator (I am still in high school, but I draw alll the time and my art style is very similar to the style in this book) any ways, I want to be an illustrator, but I do not have the money for going to any art school, is it possible to be an illustrator with out going to the school? If any one else knows about this topic please feel free to respond to this comment.
A degree is not required however I did go to school for illustration. I did not learn book illustration there 😅 I recommend checking out SVsLearn and SCBWI for resources
Thank you Carlianne. I have been looking for a video that explains how to do this. I am an author and I am teaching myself to illustrate my own children's books.( from drawing and learning Procreate) If you don’t mind answering a question. Illustrating a 8.5 x 8.5 book The spread size is 16.75 x 8.5 (I think I have that size calculated right for KDP.). How do you illustrate the spread? Do you create the 17.25 x 8.75 size in Procreate ( bigger than actually needed) and then draw each half? Thank you.
@@CarlianneCreates that’s what I am asking. How do to the spread. You draw each side? If so how do you make sure both sides match in the middle? Thank you
@@thouseable I just make all of the pages I’m illustrating the full spread size 8.5x17 plus bleed and I draw a line down the center to show where the different pages are. I think KDP allows you to upload spreads
Hello, I want to print children book independently. Could you please tell me about the settings at the beginning of procreate. The size, resolution is 300, and the color is CMYK. After the drawing is completed, I want to put it into Adobe Indesign. I have tried converting it to PSD, JPEG, PNG and TIFF in procreate and sending it via email. Then opened it on my computer and put it into Indesign, but the resolution of the file will be lower than 300, the printing house told me it must be 300 resolution. I also want to know if there will be any color difference when the file is transferred from procreate to Indesign? How can this be checked? I would like to ask if there is a tutorial on the children book file production process from procreate to Indesign. I am willing to pay to learn from you. thank you.
Yes, the style of the illustrations for the book in this video look kind of old-fashioned, reminds me of "Harry the Dirty Dog", which was first published back in 1956.

May I know the name of the book? I want to see your artwork
Thank you for this video. It was very very informative and decreased my anxiety about self publishing my first children’s book.
I'm currently an art student and I hope to work as a children's book illustrator. This video was so helpful and I learned so much. Thank you!
I'm so glad!
Do you have any samples of your work? Looking for an illustrator!
Carlianne,
Thank you so much for this. I am an older illustrator who is still learning setup for KDP. Huge help. Love your style! Much appreciated.
So happy to help! 💛
Thank you Carlianne!!! This is invaluable. Now I feel ready to tackle starting my book dummy project I will be working on to get ready for conference coming up this fall :)
Ooh yay!!! Excited for you! 💛✨
I just found your channel yesterday and I am SMITTEN with your art!!! It's so soft and whimsical like cotton candy. I absolutely adore how you use lineart in your illustrations--I've noticed a lot of children's book illustrators use a lineless style so it's refreshing seeing lines (not knocking on lineless at all--I just like lines!)
I do have a question though: how did you discover/create your art style? Could you talk to us about your process on procuring a style? I'm a graphic designer but I love making silly fanart illustrations on the side. I'd love to expand and develop my style but sometimes it can get overwhelming looking at other styles without just straight up copying them. Do you have any tips on what to do there?
Thank you so much!!! 🤠⭐
Thanks for sharing your process, it's super helpful to see how other artists plan and illustrate their books!

This process is brilliant!! Thank you! 🙌🙌🙌
Thank you for sharing! You and your style are simply charming ❤ I am amazed at how much redrawing is required!
I find it actually takes less time to draw it a few times loosely rather than go straight from sketch to clean. Isn’t that weird?
Saving up to get your book, how to draw adorable, I struggle with drawing consitant styles, and would love to draw something cute!

Totally agree. Colored pencils are invaluable for texture and shading, especially for us old schoolers.
Exactly 💯 but interested to learn all forms as a newbie

That is interesting too!

Hi! I really liked your video! I have a question, how do you put so many layers together in Procreate without losing quality or lowering the dpi?
I think it depends on which ipad you have. But if I start getting too many layers I have to split pages between files

Is there a difference in the terminologies - bleed and spread.. is bleed same as vignette or is bleed same as full spread
I just uploaded a follow up video and answered this question for you! 💛
@@CarlianneCreates thanks
Me too, old school
What is the software you usually use to illustrate the children book?
Photoshop or procreate
thank you so much ❤I am also illustrator ❤
What is the name of this book? I tried to search up books you illustrated and did not author, but I could not find anything.
It was a self published and a just a gift to a family so it’s unlisted 💛
@@CarlianneCreates Are there more books you have illustrated that are listed? Aside from the one you authored and on your website.
Can you give a tutorial on how to draw people? I’m learning how to illustrate my own work.
I would checkout my book, “how to draw adorable” because it’s such a big topic but I have a lot of character stuff in there
@@CarlianneCreatesI will check it out. 😊
12:55 Aahh, found someone with the same reasoning.. 😅
Is it true that ..when drawing and designng childrens book.they didnt go for black line art???
