[UPDATE: Kwame Nyong’o will be doing out illustration work for Ushahidi. Thank you to everyone for the references and emails!]
I am badly in need of an illustrator to help with the Ushahidi.com redesign – mainly for accenting and icons. I’m looking for someone who can do work in a similar style to the image seen below. If you’ve ever been to Africa, or seen an African children’s book, you’ll realize how iconic this type of illustration work is to Africa.

We don’t have a large budget, but I will pay for this work. Pass it on to your friends who are good illustrators.
If you know who did the above work, I’d love to talk to him/her. Contact me here. Thanks!
