Clint English – Designer

Art director and designer since 2007 creating bold, story-driven visuals with a strong background in the music industry.

Overview

Hi, I’m Clint. I’ve been a designer and art director since 2007, creating work for major record labels, touring artists, and merchandise companies. Over the years my designs have appeared on world tours, online shops, and in stores like Hot Topic, Forever 21, and Kohl’s.

I approach book cover design the same way I approach music and merchandise design: it’s about capturing a mood, a story, and a feeling that connects with people instantly. I enjoy working closely with clients to make sure their vision comes through while also creating something bold and memorable that stands out in a crowded space.

If you’re looking for a cover that feels authentic, eye-catching, and true to your story, I’d be glad to help bring it to life.

I specialize in humorous character focused covers, but my style naturally fits both horror and dramatic works too.
