It's #portfolioday !
Hi, I'm Jan - an illustrator, book cover artist and character designer with experience in art directing.

I focus on Achillean stories with diverse characters and genres - fantasy, cyber/steampunk, urban fantasy, and others.

Book cover art for "Blood Sails" by Sierra. J. Meril Two white men caught ina dynamic fight on a deck of a pirate ship. They are both dressed in richly decorated pirate clothes. One is a mage and has a fire spell ready to launch that is in a shape of a fiery bird. The other hold a sabre. Despite them fighting some erotic tention is palpable between them. Book cover at spread for Silver Blood m/m romance by T.L. Morgan It shows a richly detailed ornament similar to antique books with floral design. On the front page in the middle, there is a m/m couple that features a tall blond man and a shorter brown haired man reaching their hands towards each other. They both are wearing Victorian clothes. Book cover art for "The hunting of William Thorn" by Ben Alderson. On the dark red background there's is a richly detailed gothic frame with roses, skulls, and snakes all intertwined. In the upper middle there's an image of an old mansion all covered in cracks as if it's falling apart. The roots of a family tree originate from the bottom of the house and grow left and right around the front cover making the base of 4 portrait frames. Each frame has a portrait of different young men. One on the upper left frame has his eyes scratched out as if someone wanted to earse them from the canvas. Book cover art for "Of nights and rings and making love" by Rita A. Rubin Two men stand in the moonlight with a vague shape of a castle window behind them. They both wear fantasy clothes and white poet shirts. One man has dark skin and he embraces the other man from behind. They lean into a kiss.

One of my favourite sections of CLINCO - my Queer YA Coming of Age Story - where Cameron realises that people like him 💛🏳️‍🌈

Bookish Checkpoint📚
📚Last Book You Read: Hungry Heart by Jem Milton
📚Current Read: Beware the Nameless by Zoraida Zoraida Córdova (@zlikeinzorro.bsky.social)
📚Last Book Added to TBR: The Build-A-Boyfriend Project by Mason Deaver

#Booksky 📚💛
The cover of Hungry Heart by Jem Milton, featuring a Queer couple - one a shorter white man with glasses wearing a sweater and the other a black, taller man with blonde hair and sunglasses - against a flashing wave of paparazzi. The cover of Beware the Nameless by Zoraida Cordova. Features three characters in the foreground inside a cavern. The one in front is a humanoid bird-like species holding a purple lightsaber. To his left is a girl wearing a brown jacket who has space buns and to his right is a Hutt, a slug-like alien, wearing goggles on his head. Behind them is a gothic creature. The cover of the build-a-boyfriend project by Mason Deaver features the back of one man wearing an orange hoodie in the foreground. He has dark hair and is being hugged by a man with glasses and wearing a sweater. The man hugging is holding a notepad and pen behind the other man's back as notes fly around the cover. The cover of Finding My Elf by David Valdes has a blue background with christmassy motifs such as snowmen and candycanes. In the foreground are the two main characters, one man dressed as a blue elf wrapped in christmas lights and the other dressed as a purple elf holding a box of christmas supplies.

Sad news. Years of work building my platform as a trans indie author for it to disappear in the blink of an eye.

boovandalen is my new IG: www.instagram.com/boovandalen

I have no way of reaching out to the 34,000 readers and friends who were once following me, I hope I can find you all again. :(
My main IG & threads account were both suspended today. A screenshot of Beau Van Dalen's old Instagram account showing 7720 posts and 34000 followers. I am trying to appeal the suspension but the appeal process is glitching so I don’t know if I will get my main account back. It’s unclear why this suspension happened, appearantly it was an automated decision (I was not told why I was suspended, just notified that I was)... so until further notice I will now be posting on my other IG account: boovandalen I have no way of reaching out to the 34,000 readers and friends who were once following me, I hope I can find you all again. :(
