Character Illustration Guide

Illustration Guide

Use character illustration with a clear communication purpose.

Character artwork can establish tone, explain a process, or make a complex topic more approachable. Define its role before choosing a style so the illustration supports the message rather than distracting from it.

Review before publishing

  • Confirm ownership, usage rights, and permitted modifications.
  • Keep proportions, line weight, color, and personality consistent.
  • Provide meaningful alternative text when the image conveys information.
  • Avoid stereotypes and test how the imagery reads across cultures.
