Just completed — the cover illustration for Jeffrey Ford’s THE BEYOND, a 2008 Golden Gryphon release. As soon as I finished reading the book for the first time, I knew what the major painting should look like for this one. Took a couple of drafts though before I got the execution right. In the end, it was worth the effort. Materials: Oil painting / vine / silk butterflies / acrylic / ink / wood / found objects / hand-built assemblage / no digital. Much more tomorrow!
