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...

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"

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."

Chris DeSantis

"I could not have had a better experience working with Tom. On the business side, he was extremely professional; delivering iterations on the promised timeline and clearly communicating throughout the process. For the artwork, he took my concept and created an absolutely gorgeous cover that tells a story unto itself. His talent is undeniable and clearly appeals to readers, as his work is all over the bestsellers lists. Do yourself a favor and book Tom for your cover. But not too many; I'll need him again."

D.L. Young

"I've worked with a lot of artists over the years, and I'd put Tom at the very top of that list. He's professional, trustworthy, dependable, and he creates absolutely breathtaking art! I look forward to working with him again, and I can't recommend him highly enough. Thank you, Tom"

Michael Chatfield - Author of the Free Fleet series

"Working with Tom was a blast. Not only does he create incredible pieces of art. He was on time, professional, and kept me in the constant loop on the state of the pieces he was working on. I would suggest Tom to any and all authors looking to work with a consummate professional who will take their covers to the next level."
