A Selection of Book Cover Artists/Designers

I've been checking out the work of some cover artists and designers lately. Well, more gathering of links and less actual checking out, since I haven't had much time yet to actually go to all these websites! So some of them may not even exist anymore, or the people may not design covers any longer, but I thought it a useful list to share nonetheless. And I'll keep updating it. And if a link I haven't checked leads you off to some place weird that has nothing to do with cover design, please tell me and I'll remove it!

That's a huge list! I'm surprised there are so many, but I've never looked into it before.

I've been gone from blogland for awhile and just noticed you are publishing novelettes. How cool! Best of luck, Rachel!

My critique buddy Rusty Webb has done covers for both authors and small presses, as has Vic Caswell. Both do a great job.

Thanks for the list. It's on my to-do list when I have time!

Thanks for posting the list. Not currently looking for a cover designer, but it's good to know there are so many designers available. :)

Trisha said...

I like to make my own covers, but since I don't have Photoshop it's not that easy to make good stuff. But someday I will have Photoshop again ;)
