Cover Artists

Blaise Kilgallen

Blaise earned her BS in Fine Art Education with the intention to teach, but it wasn't her "bag." A multi-published romance author, Blaise finally found her "niche." Actually--two niches. She now writes romantic fiction--historical and contemporary novels-and has sold almost a dozen novels. She created some of her own covers, and does covers for several e-publishers. She loves to do "romance" covers best, but created some "mystery" and "suspense" covers as well. Blaise paints regularly and markets her framed watercolor and acrylics in several local outlets.
