      I didn't have much time this month due to school and life but I thought I would submit this entry anyway. Hope you like it. Done with Mixed media and touched up in Photoshop. Gold leaf does not translate well to photos.

        Here is my Lord of the Flies version, I am thinking this should be a graphic novel. I don't think anyone has done that before, I could be wrong.

            Hi! This is my first time ever entering SVS contests AND designing a book cover, I went for Pride & Prejudice cause it's one of my favourite books/movies. You can see my take on it bellow, it was really fun!

              A Little Princess by Frances Hodgson Burnett

              This challenge was so much fun. My hope for the cover was to capture Sara’s personality and Burnett’s fun way of describing her, ‘’ with a queer old-fashioned thoughtfulness in her big eyes.‘’

              The background was inspired by Sara’s original upbringing and the kind man that befriends Sara after she is left with only three dresses and a doll. I chose to wrap the design around her to represent his kindness.

                  Hi everyone, I'm new here too yay! I thought I wasn't going to make it for this contest because of the flu, but managed to join in as well phew. Only got to watch few videos on Will Terry's colour-related class, so please feel free to leave critiques on how I can improve next time (I greatly appreciate each and every feedback!). I'll submit this as a final for the contest 🙂

                    She has an air of sadness in her eyes too. Your choice of colour is very nice. Thanks for sharing.

                        I've never read the book, but this cover makes me want to read it.

                          @irwan I love the simplicity of this one. Nice positive and negative shapes. Reminds me of Jon Klassen's style.

                                        @andersoncarman This is awesome! I love the concept. Is this done traditional and digital? It has some fun textures that makes me think some of it is traditional. Well done.

                                            @Kristin-Wauson Oops! I was rushing to finish this before going on vacation and now that I'm home I noted that there are some stray marks that must have appeared after I rearranged some layers. Here is the updated version. Not sure if I should go back and delete the old one.WizofOZcover-SVS copy.jpg
