BEAR GRYLLS - GOLD OF THE GODS

Born Survivor Bear Grylls turns his hand to teenage fiction. Jerry and I were asked to design a series look that reflects the boys' own/survival market. We were briefed to produce a lenticular central image (the boy is animated, with the image changing as you look at it from different angles.) Just received the lenticular proofs from China where they were printed - they look fab!

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.

I was asked to come up with a fresh, 'chick-lit' cover look for this series from the US.

This was a wonderful opportunity to rebrand these very funny books.

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.

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!
