I just realized that there is a cover artist I really like- I was drawn to two books, that I noticed, done by Nathie.

Nathie is a german artist and I think she is becoming one of my favorite too

[identity profile] violetlavender.livejournal.com 2011-10-28 05:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Do you of any other books she's done besides the two in this round's covers?

Hello, [livejournal.com profile] violetlavender!

I just wanted to poke my head in here to let you know that Nathie works for our company (Storm Moon Press (http://www.stormmoonpress.com/)). She has done several of our covers so far and has more in production. ^_^ Feel free to check out our Store and Coming Soon pages to look at all her book cover artwork!

She also has a personal site at http://www.creationwarrior.net/ and she updates her Deviant Art page (http://nathie.deviantart.com/) with new pieces as well.

We're glad you like her artwork! We're thrilled to work with her, and are so proud that our three covers are in the running (Apples and Regret and Wasted Time, Cast the Cards, and Daughters of Artemis).

Thanks for your comments!

P.S. those three are not the only one running ;-) but my lips are sealed!

Sorry, I just wanted to say that I always thought Nathie was a guy. Have I been completely misreading his/her deviant art page LOL?

I'm a huge fan of his/hers too. The work on deviant art makes me so jealous.

I really don't know Chey. Maybe Kris (from Storm Moon Press) can answer you.

Hey [livejournal.com profile] chey_d!

I just spoke with Nathie to double-check (just in case), and Nathie prefers to be gender-neutral, so you can refer to him as 'him'. I don't think Nathie is at all bothered, either way. ^_^

Please disregard my referring to Nathie as 'she/her'. Just a force of habit, I suppose! I guess everyone makes their own assumptions. No worries!
