WHAT MY AUTHORS HAVE SAID

"Working with Madli was an absolute pleasure. I found her through her portfolio and was immediately convinced by her style. Communication was fast, warm, and professional from the very beginning. She took the time to understand my vision in detail and responded thoughtfully to every message. I have very specific expectations – and Madli fulfilled every single one of them. The final cover feels perfectly aligned with my story and its emotional core. I couldn’t be happier with the result and would highly recommend her."

"Madli is a phenomenal artist. From the beginning she was criendly and prompt. I was a little nervous about cost- but Madli assured me of the process, and it was worth it. This whole project was seemless and thorough and her friendly demeanour right from the consultation is what sold me. Madli works with the client to bring their vision to life. I couldn't be more pleased with the result. It's so surreal seeing it come to life. I have no clue where she gets her talent from but I am glad to have found Madli!"

"Madli was such a pleasure to work with! This was my first time getting an illustrator to design my book cover, but she made the process smooth and easy for me. Not to mention, her talent is astounding! She has created the cover art of my dreams, bringing the characters of my debut novel to life. I feel so grateful to have found her on Reedsy and highly recommend collaborating with her. You will not be disappointed! :)"

"When you hire Madli, for your cover art. You've made a great decision. She is a professional, we first had a zoom meeting to discuss the project. She's a wonderful human being and will take your ideas and bring them to life, with warmth and heart. Her work is done on time and on budget, she reaches out for examples and communicates throughout the process. I will use her skills again and am very glad, I've gotten to know her."

"I could not have picked a better designer. When I say Madli delivered...Madli DELIVERED! She listened to every detail, saw my vision, and nailed it on the first go around. Her hand-painted cover design is beautiful and perfect for my novel. Seeing my story come to life through her art brought me to tears and I can't wait to see the amount of people I know her cover will reign in. OMG...I'm excited! Don't even need to hesitate with Madli. I will be going to her for my second book!"

I could not have asked for a better cover illustrator than Madli! She was extremely professional throughout the entire project, and I could tell that she personally cared about the illustration. From the first meeting we had discussing concept ideas to the finished painted cover for my book, I could not be more satisfied with Madli's work!
