"Elissa James is the consummate designer. She took a basic concept for my book cover and
made it come alive, capturing the essence of the project and tying in elements of my content.
I have no doubt that sales of my book were significantly improved as a result of her book
cover design. An amazing talent, on time and very reliable, I would highly recommend Elissa
for any graphics project where the client wants to stand head and shoulders above the
competition. Elissa James, you ROCK! Your work on my book cover is some of the best design
work I’ve seen in my 30 years in marketing/public relations!"

"Elissa is a very talented graphic artist, but I was also impressed by her design process. She
quickly whipped up a menu of possible choices for the graphic design of a book cover. I didn’t
know exactly what I needed, since I’m more of a wordsmith than a graphic artist. I just knew
what reaction I wanted to evoke. Elissa connected the dots and found different ways to create
that reaction. When I saw what she produced, I knew finding her was my good fortune. I’m
very happy to have found her and hope to work with her on more projects in the future."

“Elissa James is a very talented and highly proficient graphics artist. I hired Elissa for a web development project where the graphics provided by another designer were not displaying well in a web environment. She quickly analyzed the problem and re-created the graphics to my client's specifications. She also created new web and logo graphics for this project that were of superb quality. She is creative and businesslike, with a quick turnaround on assigned tasks. I would definitely use her again for a future graphics project."
