Book Covers of 2013

 
 
 
Last year around this time I decided I wanted to try my hand at New Adult/ Young adult book covers. So I did my research and read over 200 books in this genre, I really fell in love with it, and I started my book cover portfolio at the end of the summer. I never expected to get any work until 2014, but I was super blessed to work with some great authors who decided to take a chance on me and I gained not only new clients but new friends as well. I had so much fun working on covers this year and I cannot wait for what next year brings!
 
 
Passengers of Ego CD cover was my first job, it goes along with
the I Surrender series by Monica James, Released October 2013.
 
 
Songbird by Lisa Edwards was one of my first official book covers
 and was released November 2013.
 
 
Tight Knit was actually a collaboration between me and B Designs,
this is the re-release/ anniversary edition of the book for
Allie Brennan, December 2013.
 
I am a huge fan of Alla Kar's books and it was such an great experience
 to work with her on the cover for Stroke of Fear, November 2013.

Working with Melissa Delgado was wonderful to collaborate with
along with her designer friend Nelani Palomino. we also got to work with a
very talented musician, Dan Tillery, as the cover model. Releases in Spring 2014.
 
I was so honored that Steph Campbell chose to work with me and
my designer friend Danielle Styles on her new book cover, 
Friend is a Four Letter Word, Releases January 2014.
 
 
 
 
 I also got the opportunity to collaborate with an very talented designer Najla Qamber Designs on Premade Covers, and I look forward to working with her more in 2014.

Thank you so much to all the authors and Designers that helped me out this year, I cannot wait to create more covers in 2014.

Also I am always open to collaborating with Cover designers if you want to use original full-rights images instead of stock photography.

"Ending a Torn Past" Cover Reveal

 
Today is the Cover Reveal for Melissa Delgado's new book "Ending a Torn Past",
It will be Released in the Spring as Ebook & Paper back the official date is TBA.
This book is apart of The Journey Series, but can be read as a
Stand-alone as well and is in completely Male POV.
 
 
 
It was such a blast working with Melissa on this cover, she had a vision for her character and I was so happy to have brought Jax Dean to life. Melissa is such a kind person and I feel like we really can relate, on a creative level and as a friends. I found Dan Tillery as the model for Jax  (the Male character) and Melissa not only fell in love with his look for her character but also his music. Dan Tillery is a local musician in Detroit, with a unique  sound, if you get a chance check out his music on sound cloud, he is defiantly going places! Dan was also a very easy/ awesome model to work with, he took direction well and we had a lot of laughs.
 
Here are a few of the Promotional images I created for her book:
 
 
 
Jax Dean is suppose to be a funny guy/ playboy who has a few secrets and I wanted to show
that with a photo booth type cameo that introduced the readers to Jaxon Dean.

 
I also got the chance to collaborate with Graphic designer Nelani Palomino, she is a friend of Melissa's and did a great job creating the Spread for the book. I am a huge fan of collaborating with other artist and bouncing ideas off each other to make some great images.
