Contest Brief

I have written a short book: "Read This Before You Take any College Math" on the review necessary to succeed in college. (I am a professor at a 4-year university, and have been for 18 years.) I need someone to provide approximately 50 short, simple illustrations to make the reading more compelling. The drawings must be multicultural, simple, and black and white (grey scale is ok, png file with white background)

Here's a simple thing to illustrate:
Someone throwing a purse or bag out a window.

Here's another:
Someone looking at a tub of ice-cream wondering how many servings they can get out of it.

The different drawings should, appeal to 20-something-aged undergraduates: men, women, black, brown, white. Not each drawing, but the drawings as a whole.

I will pay $50 for these 2 drawings, and then we can be in touch for other drawings.

      Well, it's just a silly example, and I have not reason for the person throwing the bag out the window. It will illustrate a point about the distributive property in the book. I'd like the people to look cheerful, or cartoon-y, nothing violent unless it is also sort of funny or ridiculous as well as violent. The purse can have some pens and pencils falling out of it if you like.
