Stan created the cover art for my novel. He is a pleasure to work with. In addition to being a talented digital artist, he responded promptly to emails and was always polite through several niggly requests for changes. The product was true to my vision, exceeded my expectations and was delivered ahead of schedule. I am extremely happy with the result and recommend him whole-heartedly.
