Little Hippie Mama caught at a photoshoot

Hanging out in the American Midwest, probably listing to an audio book while I paint something…

Little Hippie Mama

I love to create. It is a driving force that wakes me up early and keeps me up at night! Every day I strive to make something, whether it is painting, photography, or cooking, I want to have something to show for every day I am alive. Yeah, that doesn’t always work out, but I try.

I have an art background, with a degree from back in the stone age, before digital photography and Photoshop. Those I have been mostly self taught. Oh I love living in the digital age! Anything is possible if you have the patience!

I also am a book nerd. Big Time. So, it was only natural that I began to make book covers. I make premades and custom covers. I want to help my clients sell their books, so making a cover that grabs the reader is important to me. I draw from my background as a fine artist, photographer and graphic designer to pull it all together.


How does buying a premade cover work?

When you purchase one of my premades, there is a form you will fill out in the check out process, that will send to me your title, author name and any other text that you want on your cover. I will take that information and replace the placeholder text with yours. I will remove any watermarks, and then upload a low resolution “proof” copy to dropbox and mail you a link. You will look it over, and hopefully approve it. If I need to tweak it, you will email me with your requested changes. I will happily do up to 3 “proofs”. More revisions will be $10 per change. Once we are both happy, I will send you a pay-pal invoice if there were extra revisions or other agreed on changes. Once paid, I will upload the final full sized cover to dropbox, and mail the link to you. Turnaround from the time you make the purchase till I upload the final file can be less than 24 hours, barring lots of revisions of course!

I also am always happy to take the ebook premade cover and make a full wrap for a paperback. The price is $40, in addition to base price. I will invoice via paypal. I am happy to pop in a bio picture or anything you provide on the back cover. Once paid, I will upload the final full sized cover to dropbox, and mail the link to you.


I don’t always use the camera, I sometimes draw stuff, this is Chicago with some added bits
