    paper Throne of Glass Dust Jackets

    An independent project managed and completed by myself for the Throne of Glass series by Sarah J Maas, with contributing artwork from a multitude of other artists. The project itself took around 10 months to complete; from the initial design phase, approval from Sarah’s agents and the painting itself. I successfully funded the project via a pre-order campaign and delivered all physical copies a few months later. I then went on to continue to sell the dust jackets on my Etsy shop for around 2-3 years and sold well over a 1000 copies of each design.
