I'm back from maternity leave and in desperate need of some work. If you're looking for some fun colourful cover designs I'm your guy! Here are some book covers I loved illustrating
Contact me at [email protected]
See portfolio link below

Shares & some reassuring words would be much appreciated

A digital illustrated book cover of Cruise Life - Raining Cats and Dogs by Reese Eschmann. It shows a Black girl chasing dogs and cats on the deck of a cruise while her big brother tries to catch up while holding a cat in his arms.

A digital illustrated book cover for the title Unfadeable by Maurice Broaddus. It portrays a mixed Black girl walking by with her pit bull pet, a bridge is seen overhead her, with some cranes in the background and some key characters in the book watches her from a distance.

A digital illustrated book cover titled The Season of Styx Malone
It shows a Black boy with a cap and sunglasses on, her smirks to the viewer, and within his glasses you see the reflection of 2 other Black boys, one smiling back at him with enthusiasm while the other smiles more hesitantly.

A digital illustrated book cover of a picture book titled Bessie the Motorcycle Queen.
It shows Bessie Stringfield on her iconic Hogs (Harleys) against a backdrop of the Grand Canyon.

Hi #portfolioday ☀️

I’m a Polish illustrator & full-time 2D Game Artist. I love to create cozy art, usually celebrating nature or small moments of everyday life. I want to bring feelings of comfort to everyone and brighten their day with my work!

Gouache illustration of a black cat wearing a scarf with various geometric patterns on it. The scarf is in warm shades with some green accents.

Watercolor illustration of a bunch of colorful pumpkins, with a beige striped cat sleeping on top of them curled up into a ball, slightly resembling the round pumpkins itself.

Traditional fan art in watercolor and colored pencil. It’s an illustration showing the Pokémon Ampharos, with a little Togepi in its arms, standing among bushes full of yellow flowers. A small house, trees and electrical poles can be seen in the background, with Mt. Fuji faintly hovering over them in the distance.

Traditional drawing in mixed media of a white cat with a yellow straw hat sitting inside a blue cardboard box. It’s surrounded with other boxes full of oranges.

Book cover for the YA book ICEBREAKER by A.L. Graziadei showing the two male main protagonist facing each other and holding onto each others collar.

Digital art of my original characters Aran and Tao as young adults out at night in their local nyc neighborhood kissing. Tao sits on a bicycle and Aran bends down slightly to kiss him.

Mock cover of Suzanne Samin and my upcoming graphic novel. The title still r wads Fear Of Falling but we changed it now to Wherever I’m With You.

The cover shows a brick house fall and Aran and Tao sitting on the rooftop, their legs dangling down the edge, and in big letters underneath them it reads “fear of falling”

Digital art of original characters Aran and Tao as young teenagers on a hot summer day walking down the streets in their local nyc neighborhood and playing around with a basketball.

It's my birthday week, and if I could ask for something selfish, it would be that folks spread the word about our new book, The Traitor & The Wretch.

Tell a friend if you liked it, use the #traitorandthewretch tag, request it at your libraries✨
