Book Cover Illustration Idea

I took one of my older paintings and designed this cover around it. This book happens to be one of my favorites, too.

Art Show Confidential

I thought it might be fun to offer up a few samples of ArtSpeak and then translate them for your edification:

HOW ORIGINAL! = ( I've never seen this level of crap before.)

HIS USE OF SPACE IS EYE-POPPING! = ( He ran out of canvas.)

HIS COLOR CHOICES ARE UNBELIEVABLE! = ( Is that puke green or baby shit yellow?)

WHAT A SURPRISING TALENT! = ( I thought he parked cars at the Cheese Factory.)

WHEN YOU EXAMINE THE SUB-CONTEXT OF HIS NARRATIVE WORK, YOU'LL SOON DISCOVER THE DEPTH OF HIS EXPRESSION IS BASED ON NON-LINEAR VISUAL CUES. =
( This zinfindel isn't bad.)

Okay, now....get out there and support your local art scene!

Archie Bunker had a bunch of faults, but he was always a family man.

Show Dad some love this Sunday.

Book Cover Illustration Idea

harding.jpg

When I create cover illustrations, I like to make up book titles and then I'll check it against a Google search. Turns out Richard Harding Davis (I just used "Richard Harding" on the cover) wrote a book entitled "A Question of Latitude". Maybe I'll read it soon. The actual novel may not take place on any beach, but I thought the title had a summery vibe.

I think "The Howling Monk" would be a good name for a brew house, too.
