cover illustration:)


I made this cover a little while ago for a wonderful book by Kristen Tracy (Random House Publishing) that's coming out in 2009. Since Lilla posted about it yesterday - I'm guessing it's OK to show you:) It was such pleasure to illustrate this quirky neat character 'Camille'! - it turned into one of my favorite covers:)

    I don't know what this book is about, but in this case I'd for once judge a book by it's cover and buy it! For sure! (assuming that you most likely wontmake a cover for a book you don't like, this promise is an easy one to keep...;)

    I know everyone's always saying that you shouldn't judge a book by it's cover, but... I'd read that book based on the cover alone!
