The author always felt like a black sheep growing up - and she had a vision problem, with a perpetual squint. She loved this design with the little black lamb looking on in the background to the other family members (there were two parents and two other siblings in the family, signified by the front sheep). She also loves the color purple, so we incorporated that into the titling.
This book cover is dignified, sophisticated, and genteel. It tells an interesting story. In appearance it reminds me of a Veranda magazine cover; meant to be very classy.

Beautiful, free-form, inspirational, and colorful. The author wanted something that would stand out.
Flashy. Sexy. Dramatic. Beautiful. Intriguing.
I wanted to offer something beautiful, neutral, calming. I want the reader to feel a sense of peace just looking at the book.

Sassy, 1920's inspired theme for this novel.
When I saw this image, it haunted me. The face - the eyes, the life lived and the stories untold. I had to use the image to help tell a story. The font is wispy; ethereal, mysterious. The cover is artistic and beautiful. This design is available and unused if you'd like to see it adapted for your book. Save yourself the contest fees; shoot me a message and we'll open up a 1:1!
I really liked the sketched on effect with this book cover that focuses on a young virtuoso.

This one was super fun - finding images to put inside the little keyholes that would reflect what was inside, coming up with the amazing jewel-tone colors; and working with a sweetheart of a client!
I love so many things about this - the picture in the background, the text, the contrast - this would be a great cover for your Christmas romance! Available with and without Santa. Let me know if you would like to have it adapted for your cover. :)
This story is about a girl who basically gets through her pain by listening to music. Birds and clouds are also significant. I thought this was a dramatic way to marry the concepts. This design is available and unused if you'd like to see it adapted for your book. Save yourself the contest fees; shoot me a message and we'll open up a 1:1!
I wanted to give the author something elegant, non-gendered, and calm. I wanted it to be something that a CEO could leave sitting on his or her desk, and not worry about what people would think; so that aesthetic of classic beauty informed this design. I wanted to focus on exquisite typography and a thought-provoking image. This stained glass text effect with the stained glass women is very dramatic yet intriguing. This cover is available if you'd like to save yourself the contest fees; we can personalize it for you in a 1:1 project!
The use of negative space on this image is stunning to me - the mother is seen in the background color, which is illustrative of motherhood, isn't it? So often we're in the background helping our children shine. This design is available and unused if you'd like to see it adapted for your book. Save yourself the contest fees; shoot me a message and we'll open up a 1:1!
I wanted to make it lush, romantic, and beautiful; also, something with series potential. If this would fit your book or series, let me know, and we will open a 1:1!
This one pretty much fit the bill!
This lovely author did NOT like her original covers, and was extremely jazzed to see this bright, dramatic, eyecatching cover proposal to begin the start of her series. She reviewed, Amazing designer to work with. It was as if she read my mind and knew EXACTLY what was in it. I couldn't be more pleased with the outcome. Highly recommend Donna!!
The task was to create a book - second in a series - that would look like it belonged with the first book in the series. I enjoyed creating this beautiful cover where the main character looks a little older and wiser than she did in the first book.
Sci fi cover for the prequel of NEWDAWN SAGA
I wanted to create something very dramatic, emotional, and displaying a sense of loneliness and isolation, along with devotion. This really feels like it encapsulates all those emotions. The text is rich, detailed, and dramatic.
The cover of a book discussing misunderstandings and misconceptions that people have about Islam.
This cover is for a book of short stories that have a horror and weird feel to them. I love the beauty and strangeness of the stock photo.

Photo manipulation and digital art used in Photoshop
m e n t a l l i l l n e s s The central image is a covered-faced girl representing the “fragility and unbalanced nature of the main character’s existence”. In a broader sense, the illustration symbolises the limitations and emotions caused by mental illness. Gentle, feminine and minimalistic design elements and harmonious composition emphasise the book's positive aspects that the author wanted to highlight.
