A new book cover.
I have been wanting to try this,
and today I did it. First I used a lot of different colours and covered my canvas. I had no other intensions than to cover it up with paint. When done I felt it was a bit too dark so I added some white dots.
Next I drew a simple shape on top and detailed it a bit.
At this point I had chosen how I would like it to be. I added colour to my shape and freshened up the black lines at the end.
More colour and some finishing touches. I really like how it turned out and think I will try this again. Originally I was going to continue my earlier work but, it will not play along so I guess the time is not right yet.
This kind of work suits me well if I feel a bit playful and just want to see what happens. A lot of things can happen and it's always exciting to see what comes out in the end.
Our weather has changed to ice cold. Brrrr............
Wish you all the best!

You just keep creating more and more beautiful things. This book cover is great. I like the colors you used and the leaf design on the front.
