I made these covers, for Mary Mackey's Earthsong Trilogy, soon to be re-released as ebooks (yay!!). They're Jean M. Auel-esque (pre)historical romances. She has a bunch of other awesome books, most recently Widow's War (Civil War era women's fiction) and Sugar Zone, a collection of poetry.
I guess I sort of do this freelance now, because I really liked the project. Just letting everyone know. if you're interested in commissioning me for cover art, email me at proseblog[@]gmail[dot]com.
I am proud of these covers. If you hate them, please don't say anything. :)
I also did this cover, for Sukie Miller's nonfiction book AfterDeath, available here.
They're so appropriate - I love that you've attached the right feeling and mood to each ^_^ And I like the way they look, too.
ReplyDeleteVery nice.
ReplyDeleteCan I just add that "The Year the Horses Came" is an awesome title?
Kudos to you for being brave enough to share your creations online:) My favorite is the one for THE YEAR THE HORSES CAME (which, as CNHolmberg mentioned, is a wonderful title).
ReplyDeleteThat's very impressive actually! Really nice job.
ReplyDeleteOh, wow, I actually knew Mary back in my Sacramento Storytellers Guild days! How funny to see something of hers on here; what a small internet world.
ReplyDeleteAnd nicely done designs, too.
They are GORGEOUS!! I love the warm colors and the artwork. Seriously, beautiful! (And I LOVE the black and white one, too!)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful. So evocative of that time. The B+W is just right, too.
ReplyDeleteVery nicely done! The covers seem to reflect the books, too, which is so important but so often not the case!
ReplyDeleteThe last is my favorite. I'd pick it up just for the cover.
