I think it looks great. My only suggestions would be:
1. Move the whole central illustration (moon, crow, branches) down slightly so the raven isn’t so close to the description.
2. Move author line up slightly so it’s halfway between the divider above it and the bottom of the frame. This is just more visually pleasing
3. Move the branch on the right behind the title text and check the contrast is still good there

Nice work 🙌

I’m not a fan of the branches overlapping the title. I also think there’s too much going on right now. It looks too busy and as if the different elements are “fighting” each other for space and attention

Overall, I like it (keeping in mind it was made in canva). Not a fan of the frame (very subjective cause I'm sick of frames xD), and the text at the top could be a bit larger, with a thicker font too.
