Incredible hand-made book cover
Aniko Kolesnikova is a Latvian artist who recently got her share of Internet fame for her incredible work with book covers. She creates polymer journals inspired by nature and all kinds of fantasy animals.
Doing so, she perpetuates a long tradition of book binding and decoration from Europe. Her books look like they come straight out of the Middle Age or a fantasy land. You can buy some of her covers on Etsy (https://www.etsy.com/shop/MyMandarinDucky?zanpid=2030906156998128640&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_source=zanox&utm_campaign=eu_buyer&utm_content=2147023&zanpid=2035111219878564864&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_source=zanox&utm_campaign=row_buyer&utm_content=977275) or just view more on her website Mandarin Duck (http://www.mandarin-duck.com/). She even has a Youtube channel (https://www.youtube.com/user/mymandarinducky) where she shares excellent tutorials.

About the author, very short bio
I have been working as a freelancer for more than 4 years now in my little city of Fribourg, Switzerland, with a 6 months trip to Shanghai in the middle of this. After graduating from the eracom in Lausanne, Switzerland, I immediately jumped into the freelancers bandwagon. Before that, I did in no particular order: live for 2 years in USA, play basketball a lot, arrive on earth on the 7th of mai 1980, have 2 brothers, a lovely wife, and 2 kids…
I am also available for all kind of design jobs such as: logo design, book covers, book or ebook layout, brochure creation, flyer or poster design, psd layout for a website, wordpress template, drupal template, banner design,… well, anything you can think of.
When I’m not blogging on Designer Daily, I write for other design blogs, such as GraphicDesign.com, WebDesignerDepot, Design Reviver or SixRevisions.
If you just want to connect with me, please add me on Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, Behance.
