Custom Front Cover Art for Your Poetry Books
Custom cover creations by Ellaraine Lockie
Why not have your book's exterior match the creativity and content of its interior? Ellaraine Lockie's custom created book cover pollages* will do this. She reads your manuscript and designs an art pollage that reflects the themes and images within the manuscript. If requested, she will also copy-edit the manuscript as part of the package. In addition, you will own the original pollage.
Lockie's pollages have appeared in many journals and books, have been in juried and solo art shows and exist in several private art collections throughout the US. She is the author of Gourmet Paper Maker—published in six countries—and teaches papermaking and poetry workshops. She is a freelance writing editor, as well as Poetry Editor for the lifestyles magazine, LILIPOH, and judge of the Tom Howard/Margaret Reid Poetry Contest sponsored by Winning Writers.

*Pollage is a term coined by Lockie to describe her art pieces, which combine her crafts of poetry, handmade papers, and collage. In each case, the collage components reflect the manuscript's images and themes. Those components consist of handmade papers, magazine clippings, pressed flowers and foliage, twigs, barks, shells, feathers, rocks, natural fibers of all kinds, embossings, postage stamps, rubber stamp prints, buttons, charms, maps, and other collectibles from all over the world.
