Titan Books has put out an open call to recruit book cover illustrators for their future fiction titles.
The call appeared this week on the new blog of Titan’s revamped website and Twitter feed asking if their fans and readers “want to be the next Chris Foss?”
The opportunity comes on the back of an announcement that Titan will be continuing to expand its fiction range in 2011, with new science fiction and fantasy series such as T.S. Church’s RuneScape, the art for which appears as the masthead for the online recruitment call.
• Interested artists are requested to send five low res pieces of their work with a brief CV and cover letter to illustration@titanemail.com
