Inspiration for my book cover
July 17, 2009
When Ryz, my cover designer, asked me to give him some ideas for my cover a couple of months ago, I had a very clear idea of the kind of woman’s face I wanted on the cover but had nothing to show him. On a whim, I searched an old, discarded art file filled with paintings and sketches I had done and forgotten about over the years and discovered, to my joy, the exact picture I wanted. She looks lost, abandoned and alone. Here she is; Ana of the novel. As you will notice, my art style is rather distorted and spatially divergent. It seemed to fit.
