Green Skills Gap
A human-centred cover image for Transform magazine is created by Danny Allison.
How do you illustrate a skills gap without falling back on charts, diagrams or technology? For the cover of Transform magazine, Danny approached the question through a simple human gesture - people bridging the gap.
Developed in collaboration with the magazine's art director, the illustration focuses on the disconnect between sustainability graduates entering the job market and employers searching for green skills. Rather than presenting the gap as something fixed, Danny's solution suggests a route across it, with both sides relying on one another to meet in the middle.
SOY Poster
As Turkish horror film SOY expands into Saudi cinemas, ROZAM commission Butcher Billy to create its theatrical poster.
An inherited curse sits at the centre of SOY, a Turkish horror thriller written and produced by Turki AlShaikh and directed by Maxime Alexandre. The film follows four friends who visit an isolated Istanbul mansion, only to discover a series of disturbing secrets.
Drawing on influences that range from comics to cinema, Butcher Billy created an image that hints at the tension and fear running through the story.
Crafting Together
An illustration for Boundless magazine by Iratxe López de Munáin accompanies a feature on crafting, creativity and making things in the company of others.
Sharing skills, swapping ideas and spending time making things together sits at the heart of this commission by Iratxe.
Created for an article about crafting and creativity, the illustration centres on the social side of making, from conversation around the table to the satisfaction of creating something by hand.
Working with a bright palette and her signature sense of fun, Iratxe fills the scene with activity and interaction, reflecting the communal spirit behind the story.
Tales from Folklore
A newly published two-volume collection of Slavic and Persian fairy tales from Sadra Publishing features illustrations by Victoria Fomina.
For her interpretation of The Tale of Ivan Tsarevich, the Grey Wolf, the Firebird, and Elena the Fair, Victoria combines folklore motifs with references to the European avant-garde. Each spread is built around carefully structured compositions, with generous areas of white space set against intricate cross-hatched details inspired by antique engravings.
Deep grey and graphic black sit alongside touches of gold and flashes of red, creating a striking contrast across the series. The illustrations form part of a wider project dedicated to Slavic and Persian fairy tales, bringing together artists from several countries in a newly published two-volume collection.
Hand-Painted Tea
May van Millingen brings her hand-painted illustrations to a new range of Yorkshire Tea fruit and herbal infusions.
Each blend has its own packaging design, featuring illustrated ingredients, from chamomile flowers and honeycomb for Chamomile & Honey to the fruit and botanicals featured across the other varieties.
The range includes Bedtime Decaf Brew (Vanilla & Nutmeg), Rhubarb & Raspberry, Chamomile & Honey, Lemon & Ginger, and Peppermint & Spearmint.
May enjoyed painting each element by hand, drawing on her interest in traditional botanical illustrations.

Folding Dollars
Hao Hao reimagines US dollar bills for the annual special issue of Sarasota Magazine.
Hao Hao’s cover illustration takes a clever approach to financial giving, folding US dollar bills into origami houses and birds in flight.

Dog Lover Guides
Orion's 'A Dog Lover's Guide to' series features characterful art by Lauren Mortimer.

Doctor Moreau Reimagined
Ukrainian publisher Lobster commissions Misha Chernov to create the cover and typography for Silvia Moreno-Garcia's The Daughter of Doctor Moreau.
The artwork accompanies Silvia Moreno-Garcia's reimagining of H.G. Wells' classic tale. At the centre of Misha's cover is Carlotta, holding an animal skull - hinting at both the brutal experiments shaping the story and her own connection to the hybrids that inhabit it.
Misha looked to the tensions running through the book; Carlotta sits within a rigid geometric frame inspired by colonial Mexican haciendas, hemmed in by the dense Yucatán jungle and the watchful eyes of hybrids beyond. Above her, a syringe hangs like a threat, a visual nod to Doctor Moreau's relentless pursuit of scientific control. The result feels carefully constructed, yet unsettling.
Marked for Death
Cover artwork for Melinda Salisbury's YA horror novel is by the talented Carolina Rodriguez Fuenmayor.
A black cat, an unsettling stranger and a train journey that takes a dark turn sit at the heart of Carolina's latest book cover. Created for Marked for Death the artwork draws readers into a story where a group of teenagers become caught up in a deadly mystery after a friend films an elderly woman and her cat on a train.
Due for publication by Barrington Stoke in early 2027, the book is aimed at readers aged 11+, and pairs contemporary concerns around phone culture with the traditions of supernatural horror.

The Elric Chronicles
For Conversation Tree Press' new edition of Michael Moorcock's fantasy series, Svetlana Molodchenko developed original calligraphy, ornamental title pages, and the cover artwork for the deluxe edition.
Creating a six-volume fantasy classic that feels as though it has travelled through centuries of history is no small task. This project required Svetlana to design original hand-lettered titles for every book, alongside decorative title pages and the cover for the deluxe edition.
The series was conceived as a collection of antique volumes that might sit on the shelves of Melniboné itself. While each book is distinguished by its own emblem, drawn from a key moment in the story, the set was designed to work as a cohesive whole when placed together.
For the title pages, Svetlana drew on historical ornament and manuscript traditions, creating intricate borders that echo the grandeur and decline woven throughout Moorcock's world.
Floral Takeover
Leah Han develops a district-wide visual programme for Luxet Town's 2026 Floral Art Exhibition.
Leah was asked to create the visual world for Earthly Below, Storybook Above, a district-wide project that threaded its way through streets, shopfronts and public spaces.
Working from a dreamlike botanical concept, Leah combined delicate linework with oversized blooms and imagined plant forms. The artwork appeared on bespoke signage for independent cafés, bakeries and galleries, while large-scale floral installations translated elements of the illustrations into physical structures throughout the town.
Moving between two-dimensional artwork and spatial design, the project turned everyday corners of Luxet Town into part of the exhibition itself.
People's Choice
Colombian illustrator Gina Rosas Moncada receives the People's Choice Award in the Illustration category at this year's Latin American Design Awards for her work on Schwarzkopf Professional's Christmas Gift Set collection.
Four students from four different countries provided the starting point for Gina's artwork for Schwarzkopf's gift boxes. Created for the BLONDME, FIBRE CLINIX and BONACURE ranges, the illustrations were inspired by the students' home cultures as part of Shaping Futures, the brand's programme supporting the next generation of hairdressers. Looking to regional textiles, craft traditions and other cultural references, Gina created a series of designs rooted in those stories.
That thoughtful approach resonated with voters, earning Gina the People's Choice Award in the Illustration category. A wonderful achievement, and very well deserved.
Painting Berthe Morisot
Published by Reycraft Books, 'Painting The Light: The Story of Berthe Morisot', combines Natalia Iacobelli's text with illustrations by Rosanna Tasker.
Rosanna had creative freedom when illustrating this new picture-book biography of Berthe Morisot. Working from a loose brief, she developed each spread in response to the author's writing and Morisot's paintings, allowing the story to guide the composition and flow of the artwork.
The project also gave Rosanna the chance to spend time with a figure she found deeply inspiring. Drawing on Morisot's use of light, texture and brushwork, she wove subtle references to Impressionism throughout the book while maintaining her own distinctive approach, using delicate linework and layered textures to help tell the story.

Monaghan on Wheels
Donough O'Malley creates a vinyl wrap for Monaghan Libraries' mobile library, marking 100 years of the service with a journey through the county's stories and landmarks.
For Donough, this was a commission close to home. Created for his native County Monaghan, the artwork transforms a mobile library van into a tribute to the places, people and legends that have shaped the region.
Working alongside Saoi Studio, Donough filled the wrap with local landmarks, figures from Irish mythology and literary names including Bram Stoker, Jonathan Swift and Patrick McCabe.
Commissioned as part of Monaghan Libraries' centenary celebrations, the van will spend the coming years travelling to schools across the county, bringing books, stories and a distinctly local piece of illustration to new generations of readers.

The Everlasting
A special edition for Illumicrate transforms a fictional artefact from Alix E. Harrow's novel into a physical book cover, by Svetlana Molodchenko.
Creating something described only in a novel's pages was the starting point for Svetlana's cover design for The Everlasting by Alix E. Harrow. Commissioned by Illumicrate, the brief called for the book to resemble a mysterious manuscript that exists within the story itself.
Drawing on the author's description, Svetlana designed a cover centred on a dragon devouring its own tail, with the protagonist's magical sword appearing on the reverse. The challenge was to make an imagined object feel tangible, giving readers a version of the manuscript they could hold in their hands.
Take a look at the book here.

For this year's edition, Camila was asked to respond to Encantos de Veneza, taking the city's canals, architecture and atmosphere as her starting point.
Camila drew on her vivid use of colour for the series, creating fluid, painterly illustrations that echo the feel of hand-painted ceramics.
Hide-and-Seek Duckling
Pintachan illustrates a lift-the-flap board book for Tiger Tales, written by Louise Taillandier.
Duckling and Dragonfly are in the middle of a game of hide-and-seek, and young readers are invited to join the search. In Hide-and-Seek Duckling, each spread reveals another hiding place, with chunky flaps concealing a cast of springtime animals among flowers, bushes and picnic baskets.
Published by Tiger Tales and written by Louise Taillandier, the board book pairs interactive play with Pintachan's cheerful illustrations. His simple, character-led approach suits the format perfectly, encouraging children to guess who might be waiting beneath each flap before the final reveal in a child-safe mirror.
Coalescence
Created for Arkpia, Sarah Beetson's Coalescence is inspired by the Korean drama Doctor On The Edge.
The commission reunited Sarah with Yohan Choi, following an earlier collaboration on an NFT series. For this project, she was asked to create a promotional image for the series that conveyed the relationship between its two lead characters without showing their faces or likenesses. Working from a script outline rather than finished footage, Sarah developed Coalescence, an image that drew on the story while avoiding direct portraiture.
Created in mixed media on marine plywood, the artwork will be released as a limited-edition print of 50 copies for fans of the show.
Cult Film
For Little White Lies issue 114, Andrei Nicolescu responds to articles on cult cinema and experimental filmmaking.
A tattoo provided the spark for one of Andrei's recent commissions for Little White Lies. Created for Under World USA, an article on the enduring appeal and influence of filmmaker Kenneth Anger, the illustration draws on Anger's well-known Lucifer tattoo, reworking it through Andrei's graphic, retro-tinged approach.
His second piece accompanied Monster Movies, a feature on Bruno Forzani and Hélène Cattet and their mission to turn exploitation cinema into what the article describes as audio-visual dreams. For the image, Andrei imagined the directing duo as surgeons dissecting horror films, placing them inside the kind of world they have spent years reinterpreting on screen.

A Mystical Kyiv
A debut historical novel from Ukrainian author Alina Larionova combines magical realism and steampunk, illustrated throughout by Misha Chernov for Readberry.
Set in Kyiv at the beginning of the 20th century, Zmievy Sviatky blends the city’s history with a hidden world of spirits and myth. Getting the period details right was an important part of the commission, and Misha worked closely with Larionova to research the architecture and clothing of the time.
The collaboration drew on an unusual collection of references, including video walkthroughs of Kyiv’s streets and historical clothing documented in museums. Misha created the cover, custom typography, six detailed black-and-white interior illustrations, page breakers and decorative endpapers, carrying the book’s atmospheric setting throughout the design.

Yorkshire Provender
A packaging refresh for Yorkshire Provender's soup range sees new illustrations by Enya Todd.
Enya's watercolour illustrations were selected for Yorkshire Provender's soup range refresh, with the brief calling for artwork that felt expressive and hand-crafted while retaining a clear sense of the ingredients. Allowing washes to bleed and textures to form naturally, she balanced spontaneity with definition across the series.
Developed by Cowan for Hain Celestial, the refreshed packaging is now appearing on supermarket shelves, with the illustrations forming part of a wider rollout that will also extend into advertising.
Moonlight Detective
Andressa Meissner creates the cover for Yosha Gunasekera's novel Moonlight Detective, published by Berkley, marking her second collaboration with the author.
Andressa was asked to capture a story that moves between the streets of New York and the city's lesser-seen spaces below ground.
The novel follows cab driver and investigator Siri Paiboun as a stalking case develops into a murder investigation, drawing her into a network of forgotten tunnels, abandoned stations and long-buried secrets beneath Manhattan.
Andressa's cover reflects the novel's shifting setting. The artwork nods to both the streets of Manhattan and the hidden network beneath them, drawing readers into a mystery built around buried secrets and unanswered questions.
Pay Rise
An October cover for NEA Today examines the growing trend of state minimum salary for teachers, illustrated by Xinping Li.

Manu Cunhas illustrates Brincadeiras do Brasil, a Mol Impacto card game designed to reconnect children with traditional Brazilian games.

Created in partnership with toy retailers RiHappy and PB Kids, the game also supports the NGOs Amigos do Bem and AACD, with a donation made for every deck sold.

Fabio was commissioned to create both the cover and interior illustrations, tying the collection together with a visual thread that runs through its darkest and most intriguing tales.
Birdwatch
Written by Robert Rodriguez, On a Birdwatch with Baby pairs a personal story with illustrations by Genna Blackburn.
On a Birdwatch with Baby began as something simple; a story the author wrote for his daughter.
That personal starting point shaped the work Genna was asked to illustrate. Her bright, graphic style, built around playful colour and shape, gives the book an easy warmth that feels right at home in a board book for young readers. Clean forms and cheerful characters keep the focus on the experience at the heart of the story: sharing a small interest with someone you love.

Created for the Jersey's International Connections issue, the set explores how people, products and ideas have travelled across the Atlantic, shaping relationships that continue today.
Linking such varied stories was central to the brief. Danny's artwork creates a coherent visual language across the series, bringing together the diverse subjects while allowing each stamp to retain its own identity.
See the collection here.
Mapping the Manosphere
Wenjing Yang's commission for Smith Quarterly turns a complex online culture into a single exquisite image.
How do you picture something that exists across feeds, forums and algorithms? That was the challenge facing Wenjing when she was commissioned by Smith Quarterly to create an illustration for an article examining the online manosphere, its influence, and how feminist thought can help make sense of it.
Rather than searching for a single symbol to represent the manosphere, Wenjing approached it as a network of ideas, influences and behaviours.
Science of Sparks
For a feature exploring the nature of love, Jacob Stead creates the lead illustration and a series of accompanying artworks for Virginia Living's "The Science Behind Sparks".

Drawing on his bold use of colour, shape and texture, Jacob's illustrations bring a playful energy to the story. The lead image places a couple beneath a glowing sky filled with sparks, setting the tone for a feature that blends science, curiosity and human connection.
Christmas Meets Halloween
Alison Kerry illustrates the cover for 'Tis the Season to Be Scary, the latest instalment in Vicki Delany's Year-Round Christmas Mystery series.

Deadlock - A Special Edition
For FairyLoot's exclusive edition of Chloe Gong's Deadlock, Carolina Rodriguez Fuenmayor returned to a world she had previously helped visualise.
It's not often an illustrator gets the chance to revisit the same book through a completely new commission. When FairyLoot released its exclusive edition of Deadlock by Chloe Gong, they turned to Carolina to create artwork for the special release, having previously illustrated the novel's standard edition for another publisher.
Produced in collaboration with the author and Hodderscape, the collector's edition accompanies the young adult sci-fi sequel to Coldwire. Set in a world where virtual reality, power and resistance collide, the story follows Eirale, Nik, Kieren and Lia as they attempt to challenge the influence of NileCorp.
Returning to the project gave Carolina the opportunity to offer a fresh interpretation of a story she already knew well, bringing a new perspective to FairyLoot's edition.

Rural Voices
Created for Spain's International Day of Rural Women, a new poster by Iratxe López de Munáin highlights community, representation and collective decision-making.
When asked to create this poster, Iratxe set out to tell a broader story about life in rural communities. The finished artwork celebrates the diversity of the women who live there, moving beyond familiar depictions centred on agricultural labour.
Instead, the illustration focuses on people coming together to share ideas, have conversations and make decisions about the future of their community.
Full of colourful characters and optimism, the piece reflects Iratxe's ability to capture connection, everyday life and a sense of collective purpose.
Staying Together
Oliver Li illustrates for a ZEIT Magazin feature on relationships, commitment and modern ideas of freedom.
What keeps people together, when leaving is always an option? That question sits at the centre of a recent ZEIT Magazin article by author and philosopher Svenja Flaßpöhler, who reflects on long-term relationships and the idea that true freedom can sometimes be found through attachment rather than independence.
Oliver created a concept-led illustration that sits alongside this thoughtful conversation about staying, not out of obligation, but as a conscious decision made again and again.
Spinning Silver
Commissioned by Penguin Random House for Naomi Novik's Spinning Silver, Studio Duco continues an ongoing series of interconnected cover designs.
The cover marks the third instalment in a series built around the same concept, following the approach established for The Summer War.
For Spinning Silver, Studio Duco transforms coins into architecture, combining silver pieces, a castle and Russian-inspired turrets within a single intricate image.
The image rewards a closer look - it's a thoughtful cover that brings together several strands of Naomi Novik's story through one carefully crafted idea.
City of Character
Philipp Beck produces the cover illustration and chapter openers for Baltimore Magazine's annual Best of Baltimore issue.
A celebration of Baltimore's people, places and local traditions sits at the heart of a new cover illustration by Philipp. Alongside custom lettering, the German illustrator brought together a range of city symbols, including Maryland crabs, Orioles, Ravens, dragon boats, snowballs and the Baltimore skyline, creating a vibrant visual snapshot of the city and its character.
The issue's additional theme, The Helpers, highlights individuals and organisations giving back to their communities. Philipp explored ways of weaving that idea into the cover through motifs such as helping hands and heart symbols, ensuring it sat naturally alongside the wider celebration of Baltimore. In addition to the cover artwork, he also created six spot illustrations to introduce the magazine's individual chapters.
Tasmanian Meeting
Momo Sugimoto creates a series of illustrations for a ship-themed conference room at Epic Systems' expanding office in Collingwood, Australia.
