About Me



I founded Tom Edwards Design in early 2015 with the goal of producing top-quality artwork for clients, regardless of the subject or genre. I've had the privilege of working with top sci-fi authors like G.J. Ogden, Scott Bartlett, James Rosone, Ken Lozito, Daniel Arenson, and Craig Martelle. These collaborations have honed my artistic skills and deepened my understanding of the genre, allowing me to create iconic covers that resonate with fans.

I am passionate about helping new authors bring their unique worlds to life. Guiding emerging voices through the creative process and watching their stories take flight is incredibly rewarding. Working directly with authors lets me understand their vision and translate it into captivating covers that resonate with readers. This collaborative process has enriched my creative journey and forged strong, lasting relationships with clients. My blend of artistic skill and genre-specific knowledge has made me a sought-after artist, contributing to many successful book projects.

If you're looking for a book cover artist with a passion for sci-fi and fantasy, let's collaborate to create a captivating cover that will enchant readers and perfectly encapsulate your story.

Author Testimonials

Hundreds of authors have trusted me with their vision, here are a few...

C.C. Ekeke

"I've used Tom Edwards for nine covers (and counting). Each time he translates my written project overviews into pieces of beautiful, high-quality artwork. Whenever I send a new project summary, the end results always surpass expectations. I've never had a cover artist visually articulately scenes from my books as expertly as Tom. He is extremely professional in how he collaborates with an author's vision, communicates fantastically if any aspect of the project overview isn't clear, and never fails to meets any deadlines. These are just a few of the reasons why Tom Edwards is the top sci-fi cover artist in the indie publishing business. I cannot recommend him highly enough."

Jon Justice

"Tom Edward's work is amazing. I don't ever want anyone else doing the covers for my books. Tom continues to do a fantastic job of interpreting and turning my words into incredible visuals. I can't say enough good things about the entire process. I look forward to every session and what Tom can create for me."

Anthony James

"Tom Edwards has created the covers for my entire six-book Obsidian Fleet series. At first, I was concerned about the step-up in price from my usual covers, but in reality, you get what you pay for and a book cover is the first thing a reader sees. If the art doesn’t catch a potential reader’s eye, they’ll skip straight over to the next book on the webpage. Tom’s art is up there with the best, increasing the chance a reader will give my books more than a split-second glance and from there go on to make a purchase. Tom’s work is top-notch, he’s professional, responsive, and reliable. Highly recommended."

David Gudmundson

"Tom's art speaks for itself, fantastic! What immediately became clear once we began working together was Tom's business acumen. He has a structured but flexible process. He listens and is responsive. His communication style is clear, thorough, and professionally pleasant. Not once did I wonder what the next steps were, or when to expect them to complete. He does what he says he's going to do, and with excellence. In summary, Tom exceeded all of my expectations. Did I mention Tom's art is amazing?"

Si Clarke

"When I was working on my latest novel, I knew stock art wasn’t going to cut it. Weirdly, there just weren’t any stock photos of day-glow pink spaceships shaped like teapots. Who could have predicted? I set out to find an artist, researching science fiction art. And then I researched some more. The same name kept popping up. Tom Edwards. I messaged him – and I’m so glad I did. I mean, have you seen the glorious, ridiculous, completely unique cover image he created for The Left Hand of Dog? I’m a very happy customer. And just like Arnie says, I’ll be back"

Michael Lasco, author of the The Sandbox series

"I was finally ready to launch my series after years of working on it. I knew that second-rate art wouldn't do it justice. So I contacted Tom--whose artwork had been wowing me for years. What surprised me first was that Tom listened to me. Deeply. Took my ideas seriously and expanded on them. What I received back from him exceeded my expectations and brought my ideas not only to life but to their full sci-fi glory. He's a masterful artist, a consummate professional, and an excellent service provider. I highly, highly, highly recommend Tom for your artwork needs."
