Hi, I’m Emmeli and I want your book to shine
My earliest memory is of putting crayons to paper. As a child I was inspired by the nordic fairytales that sprung out of the mountains close by. These days, stories are still at the heart of my illustrations.
My experience within graphic design as well as periodical publishing has equipped me with all the tools to create a stand-out cover poised for commercial success.
Though I’m born in Norway, I live nomadically and travel around with my art supplies, books and partner. Fill in the contact form and let me know how I can help you. Let’s create together!
