Emmeli Markegaard – Designer

Hi, authors! I'm Emmeli 👋 and I specialize in illustrated fantasy covers and character art.

I've been illustrating for clients for 7+ years, and I am so excited to hear about your story!

I do cover illustrations, full jacket designs as well as character art and fantasy map development. If you're looking for a cover artist that feels like a creative teammate and supporter, you've come to the right place 🌟

Everything is 100% human made by yours truly, I don't use generative AI in any part of my process.

When you work with me, I always strive to:

- Get to the core of what your book is about as well as its target audience

- Create different sketched thumbnail concepts

- Illustrate with great attention to detail

- Craft a stand-out design

- Include you from start to finish, through feedback rounds in different stages of the process 🤍

I'm based in magical Lisbon, Portugal, but I'm originally from a tiny fjord in Norway. Whenever I'm not painting, I'm probably reading, dancing, feeling the portuguese sun on my face or hanging out with my perpetually chatty cat, Cherry.

I'd love to contribute to your story and give it the visuals it deserves, so please don't hesitate to reach out. I'm looking forward to hearing from you!

All the best,

Emmeli 🌸
