Where can I find reliable illustration services for book projects?

[benbaker]

I’m currently working on a book and trying to figure out the best way to approach illustration services for the project. There are so many styles and freelancers available that it’s getting confusing to decide what actually fits a story best. Some people recommend hiring experienced illustrators, while others suggest agencies or platforms. Has anyone here gone through this process before? I’d love to hear your suggestions, experiences, or advice on choosing the right book illustration approach.
