This is a concept design & Illustrated book cover. Another book cover I did for fun for the design & illustration service my sister and I run. This one depicts a fleet of rockets launching off to escape from the oncoming attack. Like a lot of my work, this piece is meant to honor the golden era of science fiction with a classic rocket design, heavy use of textures, and high contrasting color palette using a limited amount of colors. This is designed using 3 colors on white playing heavily with gradients.

I definitely had a blast working on this piece (rocket pun intended). It's really fun to work on concept projects and just let my imagination run wild.
I love helping people with strategy, design, and illustration when I can. If you would like to talk about what I can possibly do to help you in your creative endeavors, feel free to reach out. I am currently available for consultations and commissions.
