The hunchback goes formal

From this mass produced and well used cover

to

this swirly number. The running guy is happier don't you think? Just seems to have more of a spring to his step.

Cinderella Books, Which Makes Me the Fairy Godmother



So, I've done a few more books since my last post. I finished the two that I had bought specifically to paint on and so I looked around at my own books thinking... "hmmm" and found a few that needed a little sprucing up. I am very happy with the results and have a bunch of ideas for more of them. I have a few books from the early 1900's and really like the color designs embossed onto the covers. I also saw one the other day that had the cover illustrated in just gold so there are many avenues to explore. Tell me what you think. Maybe I should do a workshop? Think anyone would sign up?
