The writer want a dark starry nighttime image that was spooky and mysterious. The house was also included in the book description and instead of going the route common route of a house on the cliffs at night, I to use the interesting shape of the house as a frame for the title.

The client wanted an image that not only supported the title, story and main character, but that also grabs the readers attention.")
:format(webp)/99designs-contests-attachments/86/86210/attachment_86210595 "This cover is for a book of short stories that have a horror and weird feel to them. I love the beauty and strangeness of the stock photo.")
:format(webp)/99designs-contests-attachments/57/57415/attachment_57415162 "This cover was winning cover for a serial killer suspense that takes place in San Francisco.
I wanted the cover to not be too dark, so found a skyline where I could play with the colors. I included a rune symbol that showed up on the bodies of the victims.")
:format(webp)/99designs-contests-attachments/95/95484/attachment_95484498 "This design was for a dark, yet humorous dystopian book. It takes place at a University and the main character is awkward and geekish.
I chose this illustration to show the action side of the story. The author wanted it to have an 80's feel, so I showed this through the colors, typography and type of illustration.")
:format(webp)/99designs-contests-attachments/86/86286/attachment_86286013 "This cover was for a book about a heart transplant recipient who meets the family and friends of the woman who's heart she received. She takes a road trip with the friends to mark off the woman's bucket list and changes and grows as a person on the trip.
My cover represents the before and after in a way. How the heart is a organ \"on paper\" but so much more in real life.

:format(webp)/99designs-contests-attachments/95/95206/attachment_95206450 "The contest holder wanted a cover that would appeal to both young children and adults for their modern fantasy.
I thought that this would be successful as a literal adaption of the the title and used a fun handwritten style font to keep it light.")
:format(webp)/99designs-contests-attachments/86/86293/attachment_86293170 "This is for a thriller that explores the heart of a meltdown accident at the Indian Point Nuclear Power Plant thirty-five miles outside New York City.
I wanted to go a little less literal on this design, but still show the impact of the meltdown on the NYC area.

:format(webp)/99designs-contests-attachments/94/94651/attachment_94651487 "This was for a thriller that revolves around a 74-year-old Honors English teacher and football coach who goes missing.
I wanted to show an object that symbolized the teacher instead of an actual rendition of him. I liked the idea of an old style shoe, just one, to represent the teacher and the fact he is missing. The chalk dust and the medal are also details that allude to the story, but not in a tremendously obvious way.

:format(webp)/99designs-contests-attachments/95/95862/attachment_95862372 "This cover is for a book of creepy and surreal short stories. One of the stories was about a teen boy, so I used an illustration that showed both a teen boy and the moon and also alluded to the dark humor through the illustration and typeface.

"Kelly caught the essence of my book and condensed it into a single, powerful image. It has all the elements I was looking for, with a surprising and delightful twist. Kelly was timely, responsive to my requests, and willing to make changes every step al..."
