Artemis Rising: Glyphs
These are illustrations that appear throughout “Artemis Rising” by Cheri Lasota. Also shown here is the title design for the original cover of the book. The author wanted the drawings to look as if they’d been done on a beach with materials that could have been gathered in such an environment. The title design reflects the undulating motion of waved crashing in a storm.

Book Cover Design: Sultana
“Sultana” by Lisa Yarde. I enjoy title design very much and this is another one in which I focused a lot on it. I sampled lots of scripts relevant to the time period and and came up with something that felt just right for the story. The front covers of “Sultana” and “Sultana’s Legacy” were made by compositing 19th century Orientalist paintings. The front cover of the Omnibus is all me doing the illustration thing. Fabricating the textures, architectural elements, reflections, and leaves blowing in the wind on this one was really fun.

Book Cover Design: Artemis Rising
This is a variant cover for “Artemis Rising” by Cheri Lasota. We really wanted the moonstone pendant to feel powerful, as though it were filling up with moonlight. This effect is further magnified by placing it in a position where it takes the place of and eclipses the moon. Then, just so there’s no doubting its power, I set it on fire with that mystic, blue aura.

Custom QR Code Design: A Monstrous Visage
This is a fun custom QR code I did for myself around Halloween. I did an entire series of them and it’s likely you’ve seen them (or are going to see them) elsewhere on this site. This one is a bit unorthodox because most smart phones have to be tilted slightly to the right in order for it to read. I wouldn’t do this for a client because of that (unless they reallywanted me to), but this one’s just for me.
