@Ryan-Ehr i love how simple and graphic this is
-
@miranda-hoover another cute belly lol! This is fun, your characters are wonderful
-
One of my favorite books. I’ve read it so many times! I was really excited to draw this one. It’s been on my list of portfolio pieces to do for a while now.
-

@Johanna-Kim Thank you so much for the feedback. This is my first attempt at a book cover, so I was super nervous about it. I really appreciate the encouragement.

@cathy-spee I did all my thumbnailing and sketching on paper with color pencils. Then I snapped a pic of my final sketch, pulled into Procreate and drew over it. I added some adjustment layers to play with the colors and textures, too.
-
@Ryan-Ehr Really great style (I love those trees!!!). And a nice decision to make the brick road zig-zag instead of curve. The simple color palette is very eye-catching. Nice job!
-
@Megan-van-der-Berg This is just fantastic! I love the concept and metaphorical implications about the whole story happening inside the main character’s mind. It makes for both a beautiful and intriguing cover. Good work!
-
@JoshuaDages Thanks Joshua!
-
I pulled this down because i'm redoing it completely! I guess no one can ever accuse me of being efficient. I didn't finish
To reread this as a parent made me see the story as an orphan girl that thought she had a home, only to realize her parents are not well enough to take care of her. So I made a landscape inspired by Aunt Em's hardship-induced mental illness. My imaginary Art Director was very understanding
-
@carolinebautista this is incredible, so intriguing. I think you nailed something special about the story. I love the characters in the tornado, and the colored land contrasted with the black and white. WOW
