Illustrator

We are looking for a highly skilled freelance illustrator to support an exciting design project focused on bottle pattern illustrations. This is a hands-on, full-time freelance opportunity with a fast-paced creative team, and may extend beyond the initial 3–6 months. Project Overview: You’ll be working on full-bottle design motifs, transforming creative briefs and AI-rendered concepts into fully illustrated patterns. This includes multiple rounds of concept ideation and refinement, with a strong emphasis on creative exploration, technical execution, and adaptability in illustration styles. What You’ll Do: Collaborate with the internal creative team to bring bottle design briefs to life through illustration. Participate in brainstorming and ideation sessions, creating 20–60 initial sketches based on provided motifs and themes. Refine selected ideas through 3 rounds of concept development, narrowing down to 1–3 final directions per brief. Create final illustrations using flat color and Pantone swatches, delivered as production-ready vector files. Handle diverse illustration styles—each concept will differ in mood, color, and execution. Deliver polished templates and artwork files aligned with technical and brand requirements. What We’re Looking For: Strong portfolio showcasing diverse illustration styles, preferably in product design, packaging, or textiles. Experience working with Pantone color systems and delivering artwork (Adobe Illustrator proficiency required). Ability to iterate quickly from concept sketching to final execution under tight timelines. Experience with brands like Pottery Barn, Urban Outfitters, Nike, or similar is a plus. Familiarity with illustration for wallpaper, fabric, packaging, or surface design is highly desirable. Strong communication skills and the ability to work independently in a remote environment.
