Book Cover
This is a painting I completed for the cover of a book by Carrolyn Pichet. Rarely are book covers completed in a traditional sense like this. Of the 80 book covers I've done, maybe 3 have been hand painted. The rest are completed in Illustrator, Photoshop, and InDesign. I personally do not like doing traditional covers because of the amount of changes the authors usually want. The difference in a painted cover and a digital cover is that a digital cover can be changed with the click of a button. You don't like a red shirt? Fine, blue it is - 'click.' This has to be the only time that I prefer digital over traditional.
