Narrative Cover & Key Art IllustrationCarman Chung
I create narrative-led cover and key art for books, music releases, campaigns and original story worlds. Each composition is built around mood, character relationships, symbolic details and a clear visual focal point—not generic decoration.
The base scope includes:
• One cover or key-art composition with up to two focal figures
• Two initial composition thumbnails
• One refined sketch and colour direction
• One fully rendered illustration
• One revision round at the sketch stage and one limited final adjustment
• High-resolution art files and one agreed web or promotional crop
Process:
I review the story, audience, format and intended usage.
I develop two visual directions based on the central theme.
We select and refine one composition.
I complete the final artwork and prepare the agreed files.
Please provide a project summary, intended audience, dimensions, deadline, visual references, required text space, and any essential or prohibited elements.
Typography, full cover layout, additional characters, multiple formats, editable files and expanded commercial licensing can be added through a separate quote.
Best suited to fantasy, romance, gothic and horror projects that benefit from vintage, classical or ornamental visual language.
