March Prompt "Book Cover"

[Dima Eichhorn]

@ShannonB Thank you, I am happy you like it... I like so much your cover, wish I had made it. (I already asked you, but is it made with an ink!!!?)

Hey Art Smiths!
This was super fun! I've really enjoyed the challenge on this prompted. We need to do some more challenging stuff! Maybe do a book spread sometime?

The Wind in the Willows has always been a story close to my heart. When I was a kid, we had a VHS tape of it, I always wanted to watch it.

I love seeing what everyone has done! You all are great! Good Luck

@Squirrelsize This looks brilliant and I love how you've showed the back too, did you use a template to show how it looks on an actual book?

[Elizabeth Rose]

@hannahmccaffery Yeah Hannah! Thanks! I used a book mock up from Cover Vault. It has some really great stuff Check it out: https://covervault.com/

The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde

I love what this book says about art and I really enjoyed working on this cover.

This cover was drawn traditionally in watercolor with digital touch-ups.

@andersoncarman I am happy you switched your colours for the final and your frame is nice addition .

[peteolczyk]

@Squirrelsize that’s brilliant

[peteolczyk]

@Claudi I think that’s a really original take on it. It looks innocent until you see the eyes and the pigs heads.

[Claudi]

@peteolczyk thank you!!

[Chip Valecek]

@Squirrelsize I just downloaded a book template last night to mock up my design. Great minds think alike @hannahmccaffery this is where i grabbed my template. https://covervault.com/

[Heather Boyd]

@Chip-Valecek That's fabulous thanks.

[Erin.Cortese]

@Squirrelsize Great choice to remove the tree trunk from the back, it flows really nicely. Beautiful work!

Hope you enjoy. Traditional mixed media. Much love and God bless!

@andersoncarman this is amazing. I love how you chose to go traditional on the portrait and then added that streak of paint digitally. It works beautifully.

@Tyler-Hallstrom Beautiful - so vibrant and powerful!

@ShannonB One of my favourite films but I haven't actually read the book yet - I'm usually the other way around. Great work - I like the greyscale, but I would have liked to see a bit more contrast in the hair

[SundayGirl76]

@irwan I love the graphic quality to this, I think it's great. Maybe one bright colour, like bright yellow eyes, would have really lifted it.

@SundayGirl76 Thank you for the feedback, that‘s a good idea, going to try that with colored eyes.
