How to Be a Supervillain
Here's a new cover I designed for the Jimmy Patterson Books imprint at Little, Brown: How to Be a Supervillain!
The Rookie Bookie
Here's a new cover I illustrated and designed for Little, Brown for the novel, <em>The Rookie Bookie</em>. This one was particularly fun because I got to play with some cool textures in the typography and had a blast combining my art with photographic elements.<div class="qodef-more-link-container"><a itemprop="url" href="https://neilswaab.com/rookie-bookie/#more-3226" target="_self" class="qodef-btn qodef-btn-medium qodef-btn-solid"> <span class="qodef-btn-text">Continue reading</span> </a></div>

The Young World
Now that it's been <a href="http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/chris-weitzs-ya-novel-young-653192?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+thr%2Fcolumns+(The+Hollywood+Reporter+-+Columns)" target="_blank">officially revealed</a>, I'm thrilled to post the cover to <em>The Young World</em> by Chris Weitz, a book I art directed and designed for Little, Brown. <div class="qodef-more-link-container"><a itemprop="url" href="https://neilswaab.com/young-world/#more-3146" target="_self" class="qodef-btn qodef-btn-medium qodef-btn-solid"> <span class="qodef-btn-text">Continue reading</span> </a></div>
Secrets and Lies
One of the books I art directed and designed recently during the 3 months I filled in at Little, Brown is <em>Secrets and Lies</em>. Looking at the first book in the series, <em><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Truth-Dare-Jacqueline-Green/dp/0316220361/ref=pd_sim_sbs_b_1" target="_blank">Truth or Dare</a></em>, I loved how the art director emphasized focus on the finger and mouth. Since this was going to be a trilogy, I immediately thought about See No Evil, Speak No Evil, Hear No Evil. <div class="qodef-more-link-container"><a itemprop="url" href="https://neilswaab.com/secrets-lies/#more-3123" target="_self" class="qodef-btn qodef-btn-medium qodef-btn-solid"> <span class="qodef-btn-text">Continue reading</span> </a></div>
Rags & Bones
Psyched to post this new book cover for Rags & Bones that I art directed and designed while I was at Little, Brown! And a mighty hat tip to the amazing Grady McFerrin who did the artwork and the hand-typography!
