Hema Gami

Hey, I’m Hema! I’m a children’s illustrator based in Delhi, India, and I’ve been teaching myself art since 2016.

My clients say they love the emotional connection I build with their stories. I listen deeply, work collaboratively, and give each project my all. Feedback excites me—it’s all part of creating the most meaningful, beautiful version of your book.

With 8 years of experience, I’ve had the joy of working with authors and publishers to bring a wide range of stories to life - whimsical tales, heartfelt adventures, and everything in between. My illustrations are tailored to each project, ensuring that every story becomes a visual masterpiece.

What do I bring to the table?

• Custom Children’s Book Illustrations: Full-page spreads, spot illustrations, and everything in between. 
• Vibrant Characters: Quirky, lovable, and full of personality - just like the kids reading about them.
• Magical Worlds: Detailed environments that add depth and magic to your story.
• Front and Back Covers: Eye-catching covers that grab attention and reflect the heart of your book.
• Ebook Illustrations: Optimized for digital formats, ensuring vibrant visuals on any device.
• Book jacket design: A special jacket cover to protect your book from wear and tear.

What Makes Me Different?

• I believe in the power of art to teach empathy because every drawing can tell a story that makes us "feel".
• With over 8 years of experience and recognition as a trusted freelancer, I deliver quality work, on time, every time.
• I’m not just an illustrator; I’m your creative partner, dedicated to bringing your vision to life -not limited to logging hours and completing milestones.
• Children’s Book Expertise: I’ve worked with authors and publishers to illustrate picture books, chapter books, and ebooks across various genres. Let’s Collaborate!

When I’m not drawing, I’m either locked in a chess match (my daily addiction), coloring for fun, or flowing through a peaceful yoga session, with spiritual chants keeping me grounded. Also, yes—I’m a massive Harry Potter fan and can quote Friends or The Office on demand.

Whether you’re an author, publisher, or just someone with a story to tell, I’d love to work with you to create illustrations that kids will cherish for years to come. Let’s make something magical together!
