Summer Rain

My friend and aspiring author, Lindsay Michaels has recently realised a book on the Amazon Kindle Store. She asked me to design the cover for her romantic novel called Summer Rain.

After some discussion with Lindsay and some market research I came with a simple sketch design of a couple kissing accompanied with bright pink script which contrasts well. Hopefully this cover will help Lindsay's book stand out from the crowd and be a success!

I am very proud and excited to be part of Lindsay's project and can't wait for the next book and to work with Lindsay again!

Logo Design

I have created a logo for myself using Adobe Illustrator, it's a very simple design that incorporates my initials. I intend to display it on all my future design work and any promotional material I make for myself.

The Big Sleep Book Cover - Final Design

I have created the final design of the The Big Sleep cover for the Penguin Design Award and I have just submitted it to Penguin. I am happy with the overall design, even though I had difficulty creating it on Adobe Illustrator.

I now have to just wait for the competition to close on the 9th April and for the entries to be judged. Fingers crossed I get through to the next round!

You can view the full Final Design here.

I have made another step in designing my entry for the Penguin Design Award competition.

I have created 3 book cover mock ups using Adobe Illustrator, I am trying to determine which font combinations works best with the overall design.

The dimensions are to Penguin's specifications and I have included the Penguin Logo.
