Just wanted to stop in and get your opinion on my latest cover design posted to my blog...

I would love your input.

LoL... I have been in a creative dilemma for a couple of weeks now.

Have you ever had an idea in your mind of how a thing should be, but just can't find the tools you need to make that thing happen?

And every time you try to adapt your mental image to suit your given materials, it just wouldn't work?

That is what has been happening with me & your cover... so much so that I was even recruiting Elysabeth's help one day to no avail...lol.

But, thanks to modern technology, I am finally able to get the central figure conceptualized as a line drawing. The twins will hopefully be much simpler...lol.

I just wanted you to know, I am on the job and am feeling most challenged by this cover than any other II have done thus far... and am loving it!

Artists need to feel stretched in our creativity.

I hope to get your cover art to you soon hun.

At 5:37pm on February 21, 2008, Aidana WillowRaven said…: Right, .20 cents to you & .30 toward costs. But that is only for ready to post/sell PDFs. If illustration or a cover needs designed that is up to the author/ publisher to arrange.

Since I'll be footing the service bill & the bandwidth bill as this idea grows, then I can't eat that too.

But I do know some of the illustrators/designers here in this network already may be willing to provide work on a commission basis or for cheap to get exposure & build their portfolios.

Try & think of what you would like shorts of done first & we'll see what I can conjure u...lol.

Since I am getting ready for the R&K Adventures illustration, then we may kill two birds with one stone... lol. So for my clients I kinda do provide the llustration & PDFs anyway huh...lol.

I'm busy right now finishing up the edits to Bubba and Giganto, by the way.

I'm hopping on so many groups I'll need a map to sort them out shortly. :) Right now I'm trying to finish edits on one of my middle grade chapter books for one of my publishers. Already half-finished the other two stories in the Robbie and Katie Adventure Series with Living Waters and need to find good endings for them before the editing stage hits in.
