How it all Comes Together

Explaining the nitty gritty of illustration is a bit difficult to do with words, so here’s a video of what it typically looks like in action.

Additional Services

I work with many self published children’s book authors, and over the years I’ve gotten intimately familiar with their struggles.

If you’re a first time author in particular, you might ask: What sorts of services do I need in order to publish? Here is where I can help –

Alongside illustration, I offer book design, formatting, and custom mockups to help your book stand out on Amazon and other online marketplaces.

A Little Bit About Me

I always knew I’d become an illustrator.

Every year on my birthday I would ask my parents for the exact same thing: A trip to the local art supply store. I bought watercolors, pastels, colored pencils, alcohol markers, acrylics, oils – I even got my hand on a stippling machine.

When no pencil case could contain all the pens, markers and pencils I’d collected, I sewed my own out of floral fabric. It was my most cherished possession.

Then I became an adult – and all of a sudden pursuing art seemed childish. I stuffed my floral pencil case in the drawer and tried more ‘sensible’ paths.

But nothing could ever suck me in like illustration did. I remember days when I would paint for seven or eight hours straight. I forgot to eat or drink. Nothing else mattered.

I don’t know where that pencil case is today. In my determination to prove to myself that I could ‘become an adult’ I gave it away. I had no idea back then that becoming an adult didn’t have to mean forgetting you were ever a child.

It’s a bit ironic. I could’ve chosen any other niche in the art industry, but I chose to illustrate books for kids.

A few words from happy clients

Noam is an incredibly talented illustrator who brings both skill and humility to her work. From the start, she invested time to truly understand my vision, listening carefully and collaborating closely to bring it to life. As a first-time author, I didn’t always know how to clearly translate what I had in mind - but Noam had an amazing ability to decipher my scribbles and jumbled words and turn them into something beautiful and cohesive. She is thoughtful, patient, and deeply collaborative. No matter how many iterations or changes I requested, she approached each one with openness and care, always making me feel heard. I look forward to a long and happy collaboration as we continue building the Ethan and Sienna’s Coding adventures series together.
Mamta NanavatiAuthor of ‘A Bug In Your Sandwich’
I couldn’t have asked for a better illustrator, designer, and mentor as a first-time author. Noam was patient, kind, and incredibly helpful throughout the entire process. She is not only a remarkable artist, but also an exceptional listener who knows how to bring your vision to life. I greatly appreciate Noam’s expertise during every phase of the illustration and publishing process. She remained patient and professional through all of my questions and uncertainties, always making me feel supported and confident in the process. Her talent, reliability, and humble nature make it easy to feel at ease. I truly could not have completed my book without her. Noam went above and beyond to make my book the very best it could be. I am incredibly grateful for my experience with Noam! She is a true gem! Thank you so much for sharing your talent and time with me!
Simone LikAuthor of ‘The Shoes That Changed My Heart'
Noam is exceptionally talented and easy to work with. She illustrated my second picture book, What Blue Can Do. This was my first time self-publishing a picture book and I had a lot to learn. Noam expertly created and developed my main character, a pony, from photos and descriptions. At times when I did not know exactly what I wanted for an illustration, Noam made examples to choose from, and she was very patient and prompt when I asked for changes. I am delighted with how the book turned out. Not only did Noam complete the illustrations and cover, as we initially discussed, she went ahead and designed the entire book well ahead of schedule. Honestly, at times I had a hard time keeping up with Noam. This is so much easier than having to keep asking someone for a progress report!
Jenny PavlovicAuthor of ‘What Blue Can Do’
Working with Noam is a dream. I'm a project manager at an independent book publishing company, and I have worked with illustrators before. Noam, though, is one of a kind and stands out in the best way—she gives immediate communication, is positive and supportive of author's visions, receptive to feedback, works thoroughly and on schedule, and—on top of all of this—her work is simply beautiful! Both my author and I are beyond impressed. In truth, I am crossing my fingers that my future author's will choose her so that I can work with her again! 
L. MerredithProject Manager and Editor at ‘Brandylane Publishers’
I have worked with Noam since 2020. She illustrated my first book and I loved every piece of art she created. She was so efficient with the changes I asked her to make and I was shocked at how fast they came in. She was willing and ready to make the character in my head and heart come to life. And I fell in love with her work and my main character because of Noam’s talent and eagerness to bring her to life. Half of my book reviews are solely about Noam’s illustrations and I love it! 

Stephanie DiehlAuthor of ‘Sydney’s Adventures’
Noam Levi is not only magical, versatile, and talented—even better—she is generous with those talents. I saw a sample of her work when selecting an illustrator for my book, and felt immediately that this was who I could trust to make the story of my niece gleam. She is skilled in any palate you could ask for. And on top of EVERYTHING, she is flexible and patient with all requests. I recommend.
Audra HonakerAuthor of ‘Emmy and the Moon’
As a first-time author, Noam guided me through numerous steps, even beyond the process of illustrating a book. She is kind, attentive, and an exceptional listener. Despite being in two different countries and time zones, her prompt communication made the distance feel effortless. What really impressed me were her animal illustrations she takes your ideas and transforms them into stunning, vibrant artwork. This was an excellent experience, and I will absolutely be collaborating with her again for my series!
