MEET THE ARTIST BEHIND THE HIVE: ART_BY_ARTORIAS

Welcome to the Indie Author Hive – Your Home for Indie Author Books, SYKD / Book Blast Events & Resources

Behind every stunning indie book cover is an artist who makes readers stop scrolling.

Here at the Indie Author Hive, we’re lucky enough to have one in-house—Art_by_Artorias, our resident digital artist and creative wizard. 🎨⚡

Art_by_Artorias specializes in custom book covers, promo graphics, character art, and author branding, with a style that ranges from darkly ethereal to bold and cinematic. Whether you’re publishing your first novel or your fifteenth, his art has that “pause-your-scroll-and-stare” quality every author dreams of.

Here’s what makes his work special:
✨ Built for indies, by someone who gets it. Artorias knows how to balance aesthetics with marketability.
✨ Custom or premade options. From bespoke designs to fast-turnaround premades, he’s got you covered.
✨ Full creative collaboration. Authors can share their vision, characters, or vibes—and he brings them to life flawlessly.

You’ve seen his work across our site, our BuzzFest promos, and our digital banners—and this is just the start.

Ready to level up your book’s visuals? Head to our Artist page or find him on Instagram at @art_by_artorias.

Because here at the Hive, we don’t just celebrate stories—we make them look legendary.
