Hello! I’m Shannon (aka Nan) and I make art that usually has a fantasy or sci-fi element to it. I create posters for films, as well as book and album covers. Have a project that might be a good fit? Get in touch!

And illustration of multiple black dragons flying high above a cliffside castle.

An illustration with soft pastel colors surrounding the tiny figure of Superman flying high.

A book cover for the Novel "The Bright Sword" by Lev Grossman. The title is in bright yellow letters over a green illustration of a sword surrounded by seaweed on a black background.

This one I made with matte photo paper. I laminated it with soft touch laminate and then added the foil details with heat transfer vinyl. But I did just a printed version too that looks great!

How the gentle wind,

Beckons through the leaves,

As autumn colors fall. 🍂
