Custom Illustration

I am open to commissioned work.

If you are looking for likable, warm and welcoming custom illustrations of your favorite place or business, or perhaps it’s time to update your website or brand, please send me an email at hello@pascaleberkowitz.com with your specifications to discuss.

Commission artwork enhances meaning to your project and brings out your brand’s personality and character. Allow me to create the novelty of dreams through ink on paper and branding assets.

I specialize in designing for good

“My approach centers on collaboration, curiosity, and genuine enthusiasm for my clients’ goals. My aesthetic is always purposeful, blending vivacious gestural lines along with foundational design principles, that emphasize profound expression, and above all, freedom, to bring unique ideas to life. All the while embracing technology with thoughtful audience and message consideration. And a hallmark of working with me is joyfulness—the work is serious, but the process should bring at least a few smiles.”

Getting Started with Commission Artwork

We begin by getting to know each other, virtual coffee dates are most welcome! It’s helpful to know:

  • What’s your project? How do you envision the final result?

  • Where and for how long will the illustration be used?

  • What is your deadline?

  • Do you have a moodboard or similar examples? If so, please share it!

Most importantly, I learn about the essence and heart of your goals and vision! What’s your flavor and is my illustration style the right sauce? Not too serious, slightly askew and deliciously fun.

The Custom Illustration Process

Once I have a clear understanding of the brief, I’ll guide you through the commission process. Each personalized art piece is drawn completely by hand and rendered in my signature style using a variety of artists’ pens and ink on heavy weight, acid free illustration paper. Nothing inspires me more than the paper texture. I then scan the piece digitally to make small edits or add digital coloring over the hand-drawn work and provide you with the digital files which you can then use for your project...Tada!

Let’s create some beauty together and bring your vision to life through commissioned illustration!
