ANNE FINE
This was a dream job for me; to redesign all this prolific author's titles on the Random House backlist. I came up with the design and commissioned Jerry to paint the vignettes to give them a classy, timeless feel. The final covers have doodles and swirls in glittery foil along the stripey backgrounds.
PUFFIN
I developed a new graphic cover approach for this award-winning author. BURN MY HEART is Beverley Naidoo's latest novel. I'm pleased to say that she was so happy with this new cover look, Puffin have decided to rejacket much of her backlist in keeping with this design.
I then applied the same cover look to this Carnegie Medal winning book.
SIMON & SCHUSTER
I was asked to come up with a fresh, 'chick-lit' cover look for this series from the US.
SIMON & SCHUSTER
A more sophisticated new look for this young adult series.
DAVID FICKLING BOOKS
We applied this bold design to Lee Weatherley's new titles and backlist.
RANDOM HOUSE CHILDREN'S BOOKS
RANDOM HOUSE CHILDREN'S BOOKS
We developed a new cover look for Robert Swindell's backlist, tying them all in to the thriller genre.
RANDOM HOUSE CHILDREN'S BOOKS
KATIE MILK – a great new whodunnit series for pre-teens.
TRANSWORLD
This was a wonderful opportunity to rebrand these very funny books.
RANDOM HOUSE
It was an honour to produce the covers for these two exceptional books by Tabitha Suzuma. By far the most moving and thought provoking stories I've read in a long time.
TRANSWORLD
I love these books. I grew up with them so it was a pure pleasure to be given the chance to rejacket them. I created this painted stripey background to tie them all together and commissioned Paul Hess to paint the characters. His quirky yet classic style does justice to Joan Aiken's wonderful, often grotesque creations!
RANDOM HOUSE
Quirky teen fiction from the US.
