Hello! I hope you can create the artwork for a Christmas card that we will send this year. I have tried to delineate what I need as simple as possible, but let me know if you have any questions
== General concept == On the front of the card we will have a little winter scene with little cartoons (fun, not kiddy) characters of me, my wife and my dog. We should wear winter clothes, and the dog should wear a little Santa hat. I have included photos of the three so you can start.
The bottom should be winter, but not snow, and if you can include the Golden Gate Bridge and the Marin headlands in the distance, that's a big advantage.
There will be a text message that will say: "Looking for the perfect tree, the reward of dog ears, what does Helo see? The biggest tree in the world?"
Then, when you open the card, you should have the dog chasing a squirrel, I chasing the dog and my wife shouting: "Tom, chase him! He saw a squirrel!"
The little Santa hat should be flying from the dog at this point, and I would like the image to spread through the open letter.
Please see the attached sketch to help unite it
== What I'll need ==
I'm not sure of the size or the full dimensions of the card, other than saying it will be a normal portrait / book style. Ideally, I would like you to create only the images so that you can add text and resize it to fit the template of the card later.
Everything you provide should be easily scalable, or you should be willing to have me contact you to ask you to reschedule it later (with a few days notice). I realize that working without knowing the exact size can be difficult, so if it is an obstacle to the program, I can try to find some likely options.
== What I have included ==
You will see photos of me, my wife and my dog, a sketch of the general concept, and some examples of the type of 'cartoons' that I am looking for. ** These are just examples to give you a starting point, which means that I do not expect you to find something that looks exactly like that (by the way, the only style I completely oppose is anime \ manga \ etc).
Must Haves:
The general specifications I outlined. I will defer to you on things like colors, composition, etc, though we will probably have adjustments after your first draft. We also need to make sure we leave room for readable text.
Nice to Haves:
If you feel it's best if you add the text yourself, I'm open to it. You will need to use exactly what I provided, though.
Should not haves:
A style of drawing based on anime, Disney, or that's overly elaborate \ complex. Simplicity is key.
Target Audience:
Family and friends who don't mind a little irreverence
