The authors briefly described the location from the book and stated they would like a library with a spark of magic, a tea set, and a neat pinboard. I read parts of the book to better understand the general mood and to get the description of the location.
Normally, we start with an interview where I ask authors questions about their vision, and some background of the story (which remains confidential of course). This is to better understand the general vibe of the particular story, so that I can create a cover that evokes certain emotions, represents the locations and protagonists and so forth.
The process is fairly simple. After the interview, I explain from a professional's point of view what may or may not work.
Then comes a sketch, and the digital creation of the cover.
Throughout the process, I will show progress images/snippets so that the authors can confirm is the design going in the right direction.")

Authors described wanting a logo in galaxy colors, with a rose that has a pen tip. I've decided to use a modern Script font as well as whimsical elements and colors that authors usually use.")

The authors briefly described the location from the book, and stated they would like a snowy village with a small bakery at front. I created the sketch by hand first. Everything else was artistic freedom.

The image would have been used for a poster, hence empty spaces were left for the text. Client asked for Hogsmeade vibes from Harry Potter.")

Rose wanted a small town Daydream (check in my portfolio for a winter picture) in a warm, late summer setting. They also wanted a small pizzeria \"Pizza and Paws\" from the story Mischief, hence the sign.")
