Titles I Have Worked On

“Gina Gets Glasses” Written and Illustrated by ME!

Below is a list of the titles I have worked on. I have been creating illustrations and book covers since 2003, so there are many. When viewing these titles on Amazon, you will see that the cover designer is Digitell Design so keep that in mind. Same artist, different name (The Artistic Cat). There are too many to list but if you search my name, Christina Cartwright, on Amazon they will show up.

Testimonials

Steve Harris: “I wrote a Christmas book called The Christmas Story Play – What Part Will You Play. I wanted some beautiful, original illustrations to make the book come alive. I spent three months looking for the right person. I spent a lot of money to have several nationally recognized illustrators do samples for me. They were wonderful, but not “just right”.

Then I found Christina Cartwright. We discussed what I was looking for and I asked her to pray about it and then use her imagination to see what the characters would look like. The illustrations she came up with were amazing! Just what I wanted. Later when the printer had trouble getting some of the illustrations to print clear enough, Christina was able to ‘brighten’ them up and they turned out perfect!

Christina is so easy to work with and has the talent and experience to do so many different styles. And to top it off, her prices are so much more reasonable than other illustrators of her talent level. I highly recommend Christina to anyone looking for a talented, creative, imaginative, dependable and professional artist to illustrate their book. Sincerely, Steve Harris ”

Katie Barber: “Chris is exceptionally fast in her work and will go out of her way to please her clients.

Lucy Silver: “Christina was able to create anything I asked for. If there was an emergency, she responded immediately. I value her work and cannot recommend her enough.”

Marla Walker: “Being a novice doing my first children’s book, I searched for an illustrator online and found Christina. She was very helpful and patient which helped tremendously creating the characters. I would look forward to receiving the emails and end up laughing out loud with each new illustration.I had emailed her prior to hiring her, and she was helpful without any commitment on my part. She was very responsive to any question (and still is) and was great incorporating my ideas. I feel very lucky to have someone that could see what I wrote. I highly recommend her; and if I do another book, she will be the illustrator.”

Dorothea Perry: “I had an emergency project and needed to find a graphic artist as quickly as possible. It seemed almost impossible to find one that was reasonably priced. Christina was like a godsend. She was reasonably priced, saw my visions, and worked quickly at achieving the final product. I’ve been extremely happy with everything she has produced. I can not praise her enough and am very happy to recommend her to anyone in need of a top notch graphic artist. ”

Eric Walt:

I am a formally trained modern art painter and sculptor. My professional
skill and experience are in an entirely different artistic genre than book illustration.
I needed to find a talented, highly skilled illustrator for my written works. I
wanted an artist who could create quality artistic compositions for my books such
that the quality of the artwork would substantially enhance reader fascination and
appreciation for my written work. Today there is no shortage of picture book
illustrators available. However, in my opinion, there are not many illustrators who
are able by virtue of their imagination, experience, talent and skill level to create
works of a higher quality, fine art.
After an exhaustive search I found Christina Cartwright – The Artistic Cat.
It was readily obvious to me that she is an accomplished and skilled artist of the
highest quality. I was surprised to see that she possesses the rare ability to render
quality work using different artistic styles. I engaged her services immediately.
From the start of our first project together I was very impressed and pleased that
she was quite able, with little initial direction, to quickly recognize and adopt my
own artistic sense ability about what I had in mind for her to do. Kudos to me for
making a very wise choice! Christina’s many personal attributes are also
consummately well developed. She is very clever; has a cheery, enthusiastic
manner; is super industrious and diligent about her production; is totally accessible
and quick to respond by phone and/or email; and possesses excellent interpersonal
communications skills. In the arts, collaboration between artists and writers is
extraordinarily challenging. Christina’s personal attributes have insured a close,
very rewarding business relationship between us. I believe it’s Christina’s
experience as a lover of finicky cats that has endowed her with amazing patience
and tolerance to endure finicky people like me. I’ve never had occasion to doubt
my complete trust and faith in her.
I would welcome the opportunity to provide any answers to any questions
a prospective The Artistic Cat client would have about Christina and her work. Simply
request my phone number from her and please don’t hesitate to call me. Eric Walt
