March Prompt "Book Cover"

@Tyler-Hallstrom This is epic. What medium did you use?

[Tyler Hallstrom]

@Chip-Valecek Very cool! You're right, must be an Illinois thing. I volunteered to teach it this year since our English Department is trying out a few new books.

@juliekitzes Why thank you! The original is a 20X30 acrylic painting on the brown backing part of a watercolor pad. I normally save those to cut, measure, or work on messy edges. This one had such an interesting texture from all of the cuts that I made, so I decided to paint over the top of it.

Once the painting was finished, I took a picture a picture and adjusted a few things in Photoshop. Made the red a little more red, added a few blurs, and then added the typography. I would say it's about 95% acrylic and 5% digital.

Glad you liked it!

Here's my middle grade take on the Wizard of Oz.

Another mermaid! In the original story, the mermaid is rejected by the man she loves and she suffers from her legs. She tries to sooth the pain in the ocean and cries and turns into foam...

Julia Martin. Ink and watercolors

@josegalue25 Hey yeah sorry I probably shouldn't comment if I'm not participating! haha. I just joined so the challenge caught me off guard a bit. Will look out for future challenges though. Yeah, I feel you on the time issue. Sorry again! All the best on the competition though, it's a cool cover.

I decided to do an old Grimm’s Brothers story because I’ve been practicing my pen and ink skills and my style seemed to fit with those better. This was done with a pen nib the colored digitally.
