No. My prices are based on my skill as an artist and the time needed to complete a piece. The number of people and the amount of detail in a picture impact the time needed for completion and that is reflected in the final price.
Children’s books in particular tend to have a lot of background details like a bedroom, park or school and may require several edits to match the authors vision.
