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.
Script
Characters
Same in both
Layout
Rubbing mode: white on black, as a stone rubbing. The download is unaffected.
The seasonal wind that brings the rains; Chinese separates the wind from the wet season.
Before you commit
Choose with care季風 names the wind, not the weather. If the image you want is warm heavy rain, 雨季 or 梅雨 is what a Chinese reader will picture.
At small sizes季 is eight strokes and 風 is nine. Balanced and legible at moderate scale.
Cultural note梅雨 is the specific East Asian rainy season, shared with Japanese as tsuyu. It reads as damp, close and slightly weary rather than dramatic.
Meaning
Monsoon; the seasonal wind system.
The meteorological term, exact but dry.

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.
