About the job

I am ready to have the cover of my upcoming poetry collection, “Gaia’s Wardrobe,” brought to life in a soft watercolor style. The visual concept is clear: • A plain, rich dark-green background fills the frame. • A graceful, headless figure stands center stage. Her arms extend from the shoulders, and each fingertip subtly morphs into delicate branches. • She wears a fresh lime-green dress; the pleated skirt is pulled slightly back by small birds, revealing water that cascades down through the folds and from the hem to the earth. • Within that flowing water I want hints of spring blossoms, autumn leaves, and small patches of snow—tiny visual notes of every season. • I may add a white margin with a thin gold line, to hold the title, subtitle, and author line will all appear in gold or white for crisp contrast: Gaia’s Wardrobe “Changes through Seasons” Selected Poems & Watercolors by ____________: these should not be on the same line but be on separate lines What I need from you: 1. A print-ready front cover at 300 dpi (with bleed), sized for a 6" × 9" paperback. 2. The layered working file (PSD, TIFF, or similar) so text positioning can be finalized before print. 3. A web-resolution JPG/PNG for online promotion. Watercolor texture, organic brushwork, and accurate, harmonious colors are essential. Please include a link to any previous watercolor-based book covers you have created, an estimated turnaround time, and an approximate cost or pricing structure so I can plan the project budget and milestones. I look forward to seeing how you interpret “Gaia’s Wardrobe” in your own hand-painted style.
