Writing is my life, and I dabble in making fanarts through digital means every so often. Like making covers for my fics, though I cannot actually draw to save my life.
Mexican. Spanish is my first language, English my second. Have three novels published in both languages available through Amazon and Barnes and Noble. At some point there will be more.

I really enjoyed working with you, and I love the art you made! I particularly like the way Magnus is half-hidden behind the statue in the cover art, and the way the angel is lit by the setting sun in the wallpaper.
Thank you!
It’s been an absolute pleasure Claire! I totally loved the story from the moment I started reading it. (From the moment I read the summary, really). The cover art… I originally planned on doing something in the style of what I ended up doing for the banner, though only with Alec and Magnus (the banner, by virtue of having more space ended also having more people). But then while I was going through Ashen Sorrow’s background stock I saw that pic with the angel and I saw so clearly Alec there at the front and Magnus like half-hidden behind, standing in the shadow of the angel… I needed that pic. So I made it!
As for the wallpaper… powerful writing tends to make me picture things, and your writing most definitely is that. After the scene where they talk about the bow and Alec’s dream, and then when they make that plan for the beach… I kept seeing that image in my head. Took me forever to make it work but I like how it came out. Same for the other wallpaper really, with that kiss and Magnus’s phrase.
And really, thank you for inspiring these!
Every single piece of this is gorgeous and makes me want to read the story, which I think is the best thing you can say about the art…it draws you to what it represents. While I love every piece, there’s something really magical about the way those chapter banners have the wings seemingly floating on the page.
I love floating banners (no idea if that’s what they’re actually called, that’s what I call them). And it fit so well with Claire’s awesome story!
Thanks!
I really like how all of the art is so interconnected and themed together. The composition of the main cover works especially well. Great job!
Thanks! And what can I say? Claire’s work’s certainly inspiring.
