David went above and beyond. I like that he challenged me. I had ideas and thoughts but he's the pro. He suggested things I wouldn't have… and that's the point! Gifted artist beyond belief.

David took my vague idea of what I wanted the cover of my thriller novel to look like and made one that was outstanding. I would recommend him for anyone's book cover art.
