I have been working with Tamara Mayo on some exciting new designs and, while I can't show you those just yet, here's a reminder of the cover for Rise of the Demon Inferno, book one in her fantasy series, which is already out (and available from all the places you usually get books...)

My latest cover for Chris Horn has been revealed on his website. The Adventures of Kurt is the fourth book in The Word Spider series.
The interior artwork for the book is being worked on now and the book should be out a little later in 2023.
Check out the cover on Chris's website:
I'm currently working on my 4th and 5th covers for Mark. This was the first, for Ash, which is shortly to receive a relaunch in ebook, paperback, and - possibly - hardback too. Keep an eye on Amazon or find Mark at https://authormarkjonathan.ca/
Last but not least, the art for The Angel and the Djinn, book 3 in the series. (This one was the most fun to paint out of all of them. Psychotic robot! Yes please.)
Check out John's recent toots for a link to the sale currently running on all the books in the trilogy.

If you saw my last boosted toot, you'll know there's currently a sale on the Voidstrider books by @modayode, so it seemed like a good time for a short thread of the cover illustrations I painted for the series.
Here's the book 1 cover, Revolt on Vesta.

This month I will be starting work on book 4 in Chris Horn's #TheWordSpider series, a set of chapter books for children featuring Alice the albino spider and her adventures in an abandoned bookshop (and beyond).
I have illustrated the covers and the interior art for the first three books, which have recently been collected into a special edition version as well.
Shown is book 1 in the series, where we meet Alice as she sets out on her adventures.

Book cover designed for @adriannegrady and John Wick for their #Solarpunk novel, The Dragon and the Thief. We also made some fun promo animations/videos using the cover design and Adrianne's awesome music.
A fun cover for a novella by Kevin Hopkins set in the world of his Ottawa Detectives novels.

One of my illustrations for the fantasy novel, The Soul Blade by Richard Brooks. The back cover also features some character art of mine.
The village on fire in the background took a bit of work to get it looking how I wanted, but I was pretty pleased with how it turned out in the end.
I am taking the opportunity of a brand new Mastodon account to share some covers from the last few years. Apologies to any followers from other sites who have seen these all before!
Still one of my favourite jobs from the last few years. The Burnt Ship trilogy by T. S. Beier was completed with this battle scene cover. It was a lot of fun to paint and is deliberately very far removed from the stark, empty, simplicity of the first book's cover.
Starting 2023 with several custom book cover projects, a character art commission, plus an exciting special edition version of a series of chapter books I have worked on over the last couple of years for author Chris Horn.
Here are the first two books in the series (the first three will be collected into the special edition, coming in the not too distant future!).
