Information for Cover Artists

Thank you for your interest. Phaze is not currently looking for artists at this time. However, we may send out another call soon. Please watch this space for announcements.

Phaze is receptive to freelance contracts for cover art for select titles. Artists willing to create cover art per the specifications below may request that a link to their portfolios be placed in Phaze's author resources so that its authors may select an artist whose style is most compatible with their own. A final cover must be delivered to Phaze's Art Department at least six weeks prior to scheduled publication and must include the following:

• The True Type font files for all fonts used
• The raw high-resolution image(s) used
• The layered 6x9" (1800x2700 pixel) PSP file at 300dpi with 0.5" bleed border
• Signed release(s) for any personal photographs or images used and/or source information for any royalty-free stock art used (including links)

Artists must agree not to use the same image(s) on other cover art for the duration of the work's publication contract. All cover art is subject to final approval by the Art Department and the publisher.

Upon publication of a work featuring an approved cover, the artist will receive compensation in the amount of 2% royalties on net sales of eBooks and 1% royalties on net sales of print editions. The artist may also submit receipts for the purchase of royalty-free stock art licenses for reimbursement. In so doing, the license for use of the image(s) transfers to Phaze.

If you are a cover artist interested in freelancing with Phaze, please address the head of our Art Dept., Debi Lewis at submissions (at) phaze (dot) com.
