That is usually true Acadia . :) Most good publishers will recognize that generally an artist knows better than the author what will sell books on the cover. If they insist on going with the author's lousy vision over the artist's saleable cover they won't be in business very long.

Caveat: I'm not saying all authors have lousy visions when it comes to covers...all I'm saying is that the cover should be a collaborative effort between the author and the artist and the author should be able to take advice from the artist trusting that they know their field of expertise.
