Kenny Kiernan – Designer

My children's book illustration style is fun and high-energy, with a deliberately mass-market focus and broad appeal -- and most importantly, it's a proven hit with kids!

I've illustrated many children's books, activity books and comic & graphic novel projects, currently at 50+ published works for the big children's & educational publishers as well as self-published authors, small businesses, corporations and non-profits.

I bring top-shelf professionalism coupled with eyeball-grabbing youth-centric art skills honed by many years of publishing experience and my continuing work as a respected "go-to" art provider to the biggest names in the toy industry such as Hasbro, Mattel, Marvel, Funko, LEGO, Spin Master and many more.

My project management experience and efficient workflows ensure timely delivery with full transparency of work-in-progress and your approval at every milestone deliverable — from character design to thumbnail storyboards, to tight sketch and finished art files for production.

I look forward to working with you on your book - let's make it look awesome!

**** BELOW: A SHORT SELECTION OF TESTIMONIAL LOVE FOR KENNY K! ****

“Kenny was very easy to work with from the very beginning! He was able to bring my characters to life with his drawings and I couldn't be more thankful. This is the first book I’ve published and he helped through every step, even though I just had hired him to illustrate."

– Marty Leum, author "The Sandbox"

"Kenny K is a phenomenal illustrator! He has an amazing ability to make a story come to life through his colorful artwork. He is extremely professional and an absolute pleasure to collaborate with."

– Cameron C. Wyse, author "Chauncey, the Chicken Chicken"

"I've worked with Kenny for several years at Scholastic on Lego City books and Kenny creatively delivers, every time! He goes above and beyond expectations with his strong layout skills and beautiful illustrations, and he understands the Lego City Style Guide.

We have very few artists who understand the Lego City style guide and it's difficult get approval from our Licensor; but his work has always been an exception, which is why I recommend Kenny without hesitation, and look forward to working with him again."

– Angela Jun, Art Director, Scholastic
