Julian is an unbelievable artist and great person to work with. He’s very responsive and willing to work with you on anything you need to change. His ability to translate what’s in your head onto canvas is unparalleled. Highly recommend and will be working with him again in the future! Well worth the price.

It was such a pleasure to work with Julian on my cover. His skills are unparalleled and his creativity shines through in the work. If you're looking for an amazing piece of original artwork, and not just some cover made up of thrown together images, then Julian is your man.
