Licensing
Licensing inquiries welcome.
Licensing inquiries welcome — all of them. Book covers, album art, apparel, home goods, editorial, packaging, tattoos, the thing you haven't pitched yet — I'm open. My work suits projects that want ornate detail, strong feminine imagery, and an aesthetic that lives between classical and alternative. Reach out and let's talk.
What I license for
Strong fits
Book covers
Fantasy, dark fantasy, romantasy, horror, urban fantasy. Self-published authors and small presses welcome. Flat-fee per cover, with optional series rates.
Album & EP art
Alt, goth, punk, metal, witch house, dream pop. Streaming-only releases through physical pressings. Includes back cover and inner-sleeve variations.
Tabletop & game art

Apparel & merchandise
Alternative fashion, capsule collections, limited-run drops. Wholesale royalty model with quality approval baked in.
Tattoo flash

Not on this list? Pitch it anyway — interesting projects are welcome.
How it works
Three steps
You inquire
Fill out the form below with your project details. The more specific you are, the faster I can give a useful response.
I review and reply
Within 3-5 business days, I confirm fit and outline what a deal would look like — terms, structure, and a fee or royalty proposal.
We draft an agreement
If we both want to move forward, I send a licensing agreement. Sign, payment, and you have your art.
Pricing
Two structures
Flat fee — one-time payment for defined usage. Best for book covers, album art, single illustrations, and short-term campaigns. Pricing depends on the piece, term, and territory.
Advance + royalty — upfront non-refundable advance against a percentage of sales (typically 5-12% of wholesale, depending on the deal). Best for products with ongoing volume: apparel lines, stationery, tarot/oracle decks, multi-SKU collections.
Five things determine pricing: usage, term, territory, exclusivity, and whether you want flat or royalty. We figure the right structure together once I understand your project.
Common questions
FAQ
Do you offer exclusive licensing?
Yes, on most pieces. Exclusive deals typically cost 2-4x non-exclusive and are limited to defined categories (e.g., exclusive in apparel for 2 years; non-exclusive everywhere else). Some signature pieces aren't available for exclusivity at any price.
Can I commission a new piece for my project instead of licensing an existing one?
Absolutely — that's a separate conversation but happy to do both. Custom commissions are priced differently (see the commissions page). The licensing terms for a commissioned piece are usually built into the commission agreement.
What's your turnaround for responding to inquiries?
3-5 business days for the first reply. If you have a tight deadline, mention it in the form and I'll prioritize.
Do you have a standard contract?
I work from a base template adapted to each deal. For larger arrangements I recommend both parties have legal review. For straightforward use (single book cover, single album cover) the template is usually plenty.
Can I see more of your portfolio?
Beyond what's on this site, I'm happy to send additional WIPs, unreleased pieces, and process examples once a project is in motion. Mention what you're looking for in the form.
How is pricing determined?
Pricing depends on five things: usage (which products), term (how long), territory (where it sells), exclusivity, and whether you want an advance + royalty or a flat fee. We figure the right structure together once I understand your project.
