Book cover illustration/design

I'm looking for a book cover design/ illustration, full colour, front, back & spine, featuring a boy and a dragon. It's a middle grade children's story but I don't want anything cartoony or too young - it should appeal to grown ups as well. I will, of course, provide the text (Title, Author Name, Blurb, etc.).

I'm looking for someone who has the artistic talent to be able to visualise and illustrate the cover from the synopsis and extracts which I will provide. I would also want to use the illustration to brand my website, business cards, bookmarks, etc. therefore the artist must be prepared to allow me full copyright to do so. I will be very happy to credit the artist within or on the back cover of the book ('cover illustration by ---').

Please send examples of your work and details of any experience you have had in book cover design; also whether you have any branding/marketing experience.

The initial fee will be paid on completion of the book cover. Further paid work may then be availble relating to logo and web template design.
