Robert Williams

Robert Williams – Designer

I'm an illustrator with 25 years of experience, specializing in science fiction and fantasy book covers.

Overview

I love telling stories with art! Whether it’s a journey to an alien world, a realm of swords and sorcery, or the action is much closer to home, I enjoy creating a sense of drama with an air of mystery in my work. I invite authors to tell me about their story, with specifics about key characters and locations.

Following our discussion about your vision for the book cover, I will assemble a quote that will include estimated timeframes for sketches/ iteration, rendering, and adjustments. I will prepare multiple iterations of the illustration, which will help us arrive at the composition that grabs viewers most. As I craft your illustration, I’ll be in touch with updates and work-in-progress images, to be sure that the image is perfectly hitting the mark. Let's get started today!

About Me
I’m an illustrator from Camp Hill, Pennsylvania, and I've been imagining other worlds since I was a child! I began my professional career in the comic book field, and have recently had the opportunity to work with film directors and game designers.

Just not what I was looking for as terms of style goes for my fantasy book. That was more my fault than Robert's fault. I ended up going with another option not on Reedsy that had the look I was looking for.

Robert did a tremendous job. He had a great initial design and implemented my changes perfectly. The final design and art exceeded my expectations in every way. Would highly recommend Robert and will certainly work with him again in the future.

Though Robert has done good work for other authors as evidenced by his portfolio, I would not recommend him for a Fantasy cover. Questions I had asked were never answered throughout the collaboration and there was a lack of clarification on the cover design elements. I had to hire another designer NOT on Reedsy in order to implement my cover design.

I created artwork for this author that I would’ve been excited to add to my portfolio. Unfortunately, sometimes the creative visions of authors and artists do not align. To authors interested in ...
