Design needs
Preference is for cover to be an illustration, and not simply overlaying the title using stock images with minimal edits to the image. The book cover should capture one of the recurring scenes of the book where, after family tragedies befall the main character, she finds herself laying on a field of lush green grass, where her world freeze in time. She is stoic. The only movement is the wind, flickering her hair messily across her face, her eyes sorrowful. The cover should juxtapose against the title of "A Perfect Life" given the tragedies that she experiences clearly isn't providing her "a perfect life".

Client review
Designer understood the brief from the very beginning and took liberty to apply his artistic license, which was not necessarily the case with other designers.
He was also open to feedback (no matter how small they were or how frequently it was provided) and was prompt with iterations. We had good communication throughout the process, which helped deliver something that we are both proud of.
I found the designer very helpful and would recommend him for your designs.
AnonymousAlong the way, they met lots of talented designers…
We think contests are a super fun way to get design.
