As your book cover designer and illustrator, working with me promises a collaborative and personalized experience. I prioritize understanding your book's essence, target audience, and unique vision to ensure the final result resonates with potential readers and stands out in the market.


With extensive experience in design and illustration, I bring a wealth of skills to every project. My proficiency in industry-standard software and design principles enables me to create covers that are not only visually captivating but also commercially effective.

Tiago is a lovely, perceptive and extremely talented artist. His work on my children's book is nothing short of spectacular. I love our conversations because he understands exactly what I am looking for and translates it into the work. I cannot recommend him highly enough.
