    depends on the size of market and distribution. Some publishers will do an advance plus royalties. I've had illustration quotes on ranging from 5K to 11K on an 18 page boardbook for kids (totally depends on the quality of the illustrator). I don't think the fact that it's hand-painted affects the publishers perspective on cost. It's a COG vs SRP issue.
