Hazel the Squirrel Illustration

I’m adding a third mascot to join Jack and Scout in our mobile app and need a talented illustrator to bring her to life. Hazel is a squirrel whose role is to reassure users that their data is safe. To stay consistent with our existing branding, I need her drawn in the same visual style as Jack and Scout, right down to line weight, colour palette and proportions.

Key visual cues
• Hazel should be carrying an acorn with a padlock—this is the main prop users will associate with secure data storage.
• Her expression needs to be a friendly, reassuring smile rather than playful or overly serious.
• A speech bubble reading “Hazel keeps it safe” must be included as part of the artwork.

Usage context
The illustration will sit inside the app as a standalone graphic alongside other screen elements, so it must work at multiple resolutions and on both light and dark backgrounds.

Deliverables
• Final character illustration in layered vector (AI / SVG) and high-resolution PNG.
• Separate file for the speech bubble in case we need to reposition it.
• Colour palette and font call-outs so the style stays reproducible for future assets.

Acceptance criteria
1. Overall style matches Jack and Scout when viewed side-by-side.
2. Friendly, reassuring smile is clearly readable at 100 px height.
3. Acorn with padlock is recognisable and not confused with other objects.
4. Files delivered in the formats listed above.
