J. Clendening

I’ve been designing for more than twenty years, and I still get a spark every time I open Photoshop or Affinity Photo. It’s where I play, experiment, and lose track of time making things that feel right. I also love working in vector and 3D when a project calls for clean lines or a little extra depth. When I’m not designing, you’ll usually find me reading (or writing), hunting treasures at thrift shops, trying a new DIY idea, or curled up with a cozy TV show and my cats. All of these little pieces of my life end up in my work—texture, mood, story. My goal is simple: covers that draw people in and make them want to know more.
