Freelance Vector Artist Wanted for Ongoing Needs

Anywhere
This job is no longer available. But don't worry - we have lots of new freelance jobs for you!
Budget: $100 to $500

A little about me:
I run a freelance graphic design studio from my laptop as I travel around the world. I'm looking for other people to join me on a freelance basis to help with the project aspects I am not skilled in: Coding and Illustrations being the main two I need at the moment.

I am looking for a long-term team member to help me on an ongoing monthly basis that is reliable. I don't put up with b.s. or excuses, ever.  I have a steady flow of work currently, but expect my workload to increase dramatically over the next few months.

If you are not capable of the following, please do not apply:

  • Delivering the product ahead of deadline
  • Never missing a deadline, Ever. Do whatever it takes.
  • Do your best work on every project.
  • Stand behind your work (ensure the client is happy - within reason)
  • Exceeding customer expectations and providing superior customer service
  • Ability to give and receive constructive criticism.
  • Excellent Communication and Time Management Skills.
  • Fluent in English. I don't care if English is your second language, but you must be able to communicate effectively
  • Reliable 
  • A strong desire to excel, learn, and expand skill-sets.

I often reward exceptional service and help pay for extended learning once we've been working together a while. I believe that if I take care of you, you will take care of me and vise versa.  I want this to be a win-win for both of us and be a positive healthy working relationship. 

Right now I have an opening for a vector artist. I am a designer, but my drawing skills have their limits especially when it comes to mascot type logos or characters. I am looking for someone that can take the sketches I draw, but that are beyond my illustrative talents to create, and bring them to life so that I can offer a more diversified product to my client. I will also need illustrations for website headers and icons.

SKILLS REQUIRED:
  • Expert knowledge of illustrator
  • Ability to create logos
  • Ability to draw characters.
  • Ability to draw icons. 
  • Strong typography skills (but not required)

TO APPLY:
If you do not follow these simple instructions, I will delete your e-mail.  Send a message with the following:
  1. Brief Intro to who you are.
  2. Your customer Service philosophy
  3. Hourly Rate
  4. Links to your work and style
  5. City/Country of residence and timezone
  6. Quotes for the two small projects listed below
  7. Lastly, what are your favorite kind of projects to work on? (how can I best use you?)

Quotes Needed for:
  • 3 logo concepts (you are given sketches and creative direction for each).
  • Header Illustration (illustration detail: medium - you are given sketches and creative direction)
May the odds be ever in your favor!
