Graphic Design

A couple years back I put together a book of poetry, a compilation of my poems from the year previous. Well I've been on the hunt for illustrators to do pictures for each poem in this book, which at the moment there is 27. I need to have 36 by the time I'm ready to publish this book. The cover design is supposed to make it stand out on a coffee table.
