I have to say that I can not take all the credit for this cover idea. This is one of the only times that I can even think of that I did not read a manuscript to create a cover. The author had very specific ideas and images in mind for the cover.
This made it even more of a challenge as I had to read into her mind to create the artwork. The mind reading paid off with a very happy author and a published book.
The cover was designed in Photoshop.
