Sumarul concursului
I'm looking for a skilled artist with the ability and experience to create quality illustrations for a novel I have written. The genre of the anthology is science fiction/ general fantasy. What I'm looking for primarily is the cover art. The story revolves around a mysterious and magical kingdom made up of a collection of islands, though the art I'm looking for currently would only depict one of the islands.
Description of the Artwork
A distant view of the island with a collection of bright red cliffs in the background forms a series of multiple steppes, reaching to the bright, blue sky of mid-day. At the top of the tallest of these cliffs would be the outline of an abandoned castle that shows signs of age. At the bottom of the cliffs is a sandy beach where you can faintly see the form of a teenage boy running toward a wooden cabin.
This cabin is surrounded by a white picket fence, perhaps with a small garden between the fence's entrance and the doorway to the tiny cottage.
A small, yellow, scientific-type submarine is also visible behind the boy, oddly beached on the shore. (see details below). The periphery of the scene flows with an Unreal GameEngine-style aquamarine-colored ocean. The ocean works its way from the bottom of the picture to where its waves lap around the edges of the island's shore. A star-like glint from the sun is reflected off the swirling waves.
One final detail and this is the most important of all, is a whirlpool towards the bottom of the scene in the ocean. It is only a subtle difference in the water flow (it should not be super obvious). This detail is critical. I would also appreciate someone willing to give and receive feedback to ensure the most clarity.
Recap:
1. Use sharp and crisp colors, red cliff on an island in the distance.
2 Blue sky, star-like glint coming off the surrounding ocean.
3 A broad but not obvious mysterious and foreboding, whirlpool-like rotation in the water.
4 On island details a teenage boy running across a sandy beach toward a cabin; the boy has black hair, light caucasian skin, and blue/green eyes. The boy would be depicted from a side angle. Behind the boy is a yellow, scientific submarine on the beach.
For reference, see the submarines used by National Geographic (the kind used for deep ocean exploration).

5 The outline of a dilapidated castle on the top of one of the red cliffs.
Style Preferences
I would really like this to have a vivid game-like UnrealEngine feeling. Clear lines. Fantasy-esque, and yet I would also like the viewers to feel like they might actually see something like what they see in the piece in real life.
If I love what you make, then I may have more illustrations that I could commission with you.
