ILLUSTRATION

Color and Black-and-White

by Joelle Steele

I specialize in architecture (buildings, houses, storefronts, furniture, etc.), horticulture (plants, trees, flowers, landscapes, garden elements, etc.), animals (mostly fish, birds, and cats, but I can do other animals as well), fantasy creatures, and faux woodcuts. Most of my color illustrations are done in ink, watercolor, or pencil. I also do black and white illustration in ink, pencil, and charcoal. All of my work is scanned at high resolution and shipped in .tif and .jpg file formats. For more information about my illustration services, please feel free to contact me at: joellesteele@joellesteele.com.
