Marco and the Pharaoh's Curse
Book Cover Design.
The Printed book available now!
I was asked to create a book cover for Paul's latest novel. The story of Marco and the Pharaoh's Curse includes fantastic descriptions of Paul's direct experiences, from diving in the Mediterranean Sea. He describes in detail the corals, fish species and the shipwreck.
When Paul got in touch with me he had some great ideas and a clear vision of what he wanted. Sending me his concept idea I was able to take that vision and create a photoshop composite image that included everything he wanted on the cover. I added layers of texture and lighting effects to add depth and atmosphere to the image.
This is what Paul had to say about his cover design.
“I understand the cover is the most important issue with a book. Sam’s design boosted my book’s credibility enormously. Even my well-respected editor commented: ‘a very striking and eye-catching cover. I like the way the colour changes from shades of blue to the gold towards the seabed, and how the colouring of the title blends everything together.’
Sam is truly a very, very gifted artist, and I have no hesitation in recommending her to you.”
