Artwork for book covers
Hi all,
I would like to show you this picture http://poty2008.dcmag.co.uk/3913562626741258615/in-a-nutshell.html
advertising part of my work designing cover shots - only to add that many artists and photographers are happy to provide work at reasonable rates as they enjoy the promotion aspect in seeing their work on front covers as well as inside the book.
Regards
Andy

Well, whatever images an author chooses, I hope they don't show up on 'Oddee.com's '10 Worst Book Covers' list.
Look it up online, it's a scream.
The best way to approach cover art is to walk through a bookstore. Which covers really grab you, like from ten feet away? Why? Images? Colors? Title? They could be beautiful, eye-bogglingly clashing, gross, or funny - but each one got your attention.
Now figure out what approach you want to take and how to apply that to your title.
