How I Illustrate Book Covers! ️

Hello Anoosha! thank you for this! I always enjoy your vids. May you also tell us about how you take care of your hand while working as an illustrator? I think this is not talked much about in YT

Thank you for taking time to make your videos. They are all very thorough and well communicated. I really appreciate that you share key nuggets of information that aspiring illustrators can actually use as steps to achieve our goals. Thank you again 🙏😊

Yes the timeline is absolutely invaluable thank you so so much! It's good to be able to advocate for ourselves as artists absolutely.

Thanks for this video. It reminds me the importance of working in layers. 💖 and the times I should consider for each job I get. Thanks

Hi Anoosha. I hope you can still see my comment. I really love your works! You're definitely my greatest inspiration. I have a question for the software used. Do you recommend using other software. I did have some experience using both Photoshop and Ai but I'm more familiar with Clip Studio Paint by now. So is it okay if I proceed with that since I don't have Procreate 😭

Lovely style! You are very talented! like the nice sence of colour harmony and stylization !

Thanks Anoosha for such an informative video! May I know what application do you use please? And did only use ipad for the entire process? Lastly, do you mind sharing the fees you charged for this job? If that's too personal, what do you think one should charge to design a book cover? Many thanks x

I love what you share. Thanks

this video is soooo informative!! thankyou for sharing all the insights and details along the way <3

thank you for sharing all your process, it helps a lot us begginers <3

Thanj you so much for this very helpful information! I never knew that 3 months for 32 pages was too short because now I'm working on 35 pages and still not done. It's been 3 months now and I feel bad cause I couldn't finish it sooner :(

Thank you so much for sharing the complete process with us, I appreciate every single part of the video. It is valuable content and very helpful. Thank you very much, Anoosha.
Much love!

I do love the time schedules! Please keep adding them

The time-lapses were so satisfying to watch...

What app and or other software do you use?

I love your videos and I find every bit of information helpful!

these kinds of videos are so helpful to understand your process! thanks for posting!!

I love how informative about the professional side of artist work your videos are!

Love your work! Where should someone start when creating a book cover portfolio who hasn’t done an official job yet? Who should those portfolios be sent to?

Awesome, Thank you for sharing!

i love your videos so much anoosha!! thanks for sharing your process & behind the scenes -- ty from another canadian illustrator <3 cant wait for the next one!!

Hi, I also have got 3 months to work on a 32 pages children book in the past and also recently. I though that it was better because I calculate my our rate behind the scenes and if they give me more time, I though that for sure I would be working too much and to long on each drawing (I got adhd and wenn I'm in the zone I forget about time :-/) so that my hourly rate would be way to long :-(

I love your videos, 🌼they are super helpful!! I’m trying to learn illustration on my own, to hopefully become a children’s book illustrator too. I was so excited that you posted a new video, 😃it’s been so long since the last.

Always love your videos 🥰

Anoosha, thank you for sharing your videos about your illustration career. I find them so helpful as I try to break into illustration. I have a question about client feedback. Have you ever experienced difficulty creating what a client wants? Sometimes I worry about not being able to deliver what a client wants - fear of failure on my part maybe...

This is an amazing process, thank you for sharing this!

Super insightful as always !!thanks Anoosha!

Thank you for this! I’ve been so inspired by your art and I love childrens books and books for older kids . I’m on the journey to also becoming an illustrator for childrens books💕

Anoosha you're our artist big sister 😭😭

Thank you very much for showing us the whole process and explaining the time you take to make a book, I always had doubts about it, but this was very helpful, I am starting in this, and I really would like to make a book someday

Amazing! Really love seeing the process & details step by step. I'm interested in this kind of work style.

Thank you so much for the video! It was really useful and inspiring!

Thanks for this video! It was a really helpful step-by-step for the book cover process. I'm looking to do freelance illustrating book covers so this is a good reference for me!

Really interesting seeing the process from start to finish. For the extra illustrations for each chapter did you negotiate an extra fee for that seeing as it wasn’t part of the original quoted fee?

Your videos are always so inspiring and helpful for an aspiring children’s books illustrator such as myself! Also your earrings are super cute! Thanks for what you do! 💜💜

Hello. I wanna jump into cover illustration world. How to get job? Should I post arts first or have connection to publishers?
