The Center Cannot Hold

The Center Cannot Hold

A junior journalist travels north to bury his grandfather — a Spanish Civil War volunteer, Blitz survivor, and founder of a charity that has lifted thousands out of hardship — and, commissioned to write the great man's story, opens the journals left behind in his locked study. What he finds there is a secret kept for seventy years: a truth that would right an old wrong, and destroy everything the old man built to atone for it.

Minimalist Anxiety Self-Help Book Cover Design | Modern Psychology & Mental Health Cover with

Minimalist Anxiety Self-Help Book Cover Design | Modern Psychology & Mental Health Cover with

Designed for a self-published author, this modern self-help book cover explores anxiety with warmth, clarity, and a touch of personality. Instead of relying on the usual visual clichés, I paired clean editorial typography with a simple line illustration to create a cover that feels calm, approachable, and memorable. The soft color palette reflects themes of emotional healing, self-compassion, overthinking, and personal growth while keeping the design highly legible at Amazon KDP thumbnail size. Created for a psychology and mental health book inspired by Internal Family Systems (IFS), this custom book cover balances strong visual hierarchy with a friendly, contemporary feel. It's designed to help nonfiction authors stand out in competitive self-publishing and traditional publishing markets while appealing to readers looking for books about anxiety relief, wellness, mindfulness, and emotional resilience.

Way Back When

Way Back When

The goal for this book cover was to create a retro vintage feel while keeping the design clean, timeless, and uncluttered. I chose a warm vintage orange as the dominant color to evoke nostalgia, with a rotary phone as the central object, an iconic symbol that instantly transports the reader back in time. To make the design unique across the entire book, I wrapped the phone cord around the spine, seamlessly connecting the front and back covers into one continuous composition. The entire cover was hand-drawn and illustrated from scratch, with no AI-generated elements or stock images. Every detail was carefully crafted to balance simplicity, storytelling, and visual impact. If you're looking for a custom hand-drawn book cover or illustration, feel free to message me anytime. I'd love to help bring your vision to life.

I've tried to stay on minimalistic approach (no images) but still, keep some story behind the letters. The letter A in the title resembles a silhouette of a person with a big belly (obese).
