About this service

Summary

Project Overview: I was commissioned by Bulgarian author Nadezhda Dineva to create a compelling hardcover design for her action-thriller novel, Joanne Black. The book follows a "professional warrior" living anonymously, and the cover needed to reflect themes of danger, hidden identity, and high-stakes action.
The Goal The objective was to create a commercial-ready cover that stands out in the crowded Thriller/Crime genre. The author needed a visual representation of the protagonist—masked and dangerous—set against an urban backdrop that hints at the story's gritty atmosphere.
