ㄊㄧㄢˊ tián
Two versions of the same picture, and both are free with no account and no watermark. The first has no background at all, which is the one to send your artist — but a phone or computer photo viewer set to dark will show black strokes on dark grey and it can look like nothing downloaded. If that happens, use the second one: identical characters on a plain white background. Either way you get the characters on their own — the square and the faint guide lines you see above are not in the file. Each character is 1000px, so a two-character download is 2000×1000, and the script and layout are the ones you picked.

Characters
Same in both
Layout
Rubbing mode: white on black, as a stone rubbing. The download is unaffected.
A worked plot of farmland seen from above; open grassy country is a different word again.
Before you commit
Choose with care田 is a farmed plot, not a grassy field. An English speaker picturing an open meadow wants 野 or 原 instead.
JapaneseVery common in Japanese surnames as ta or da (Tanaka, Yamada). A lone 田 reads as a Japanese name element to many viewers.
At small sizesFive strokes and perfectly square. Scales down cleanly and survives curved placements better than most characters.
Meaning
A cultivated field, especially a paddy; the plot itself.
The plainest and oldest word for farmed land, and the one a reader sees first.

What to do next
Pick the script and layout you want above, download the PNG, and send that file to your artist. Ask them to work from the file rather than redrawing the character freehand — that is where strokes go missing.
