Back in Town and New Book Cover!

Here is a little post on the final cover design for my book coming out in Fall 2012...
It is a wrap around cover and below is the full composition. This one has a really cool concept. For those interested, here is the sketch














I just got back from a vacation in Greece. I did some urban sketching while there I need to scan. In the meantime, a view of Santorini from a bar where mom and I sampled some local vintages.

  9. The foxes are beautiful, and I admire the job you did in creating a design that worked both so well as a at full-length image AND when folded around the book.
