Description
Please 'Full View', the detail is sharper!This image is the cover artwork for ‘Twisted Threads’, a fantasy novel by Ryan Kinsch. The book features both darkness and light, wolves, dreams, spirits, trees and various other spiritual and medieval fantasy elements.
For the design of the cover I needed to capture a balance; fantasy that would suit both young and adult readers. I wished to paint the magic of fantasy whilst avoiding cliché and instead present something contemporary.
The lower half is designed to be simpler as this is where the book title and author line will be placed.
My sincerest thanks to `Astralseed for suggesting this as a DD and to ^wdwparksgal for featuring it. Also, thanks to everyone who has commented. I am very flattered! I appreciate the support from all who fav and comment! Thank you...now go check out the book!

This is so jaw dropping! I have to agree with the DD comment, there is something very haunting about this image. Very beautiful but very deadly and almost even tragic. Just stunning...

I absolutely love all the different faces and compositions seen here. It's astoundingly gorgeous. It makes me want to pick up the book, because even though people say to never judge a book by it's cover, that's exactly what we do. Amazing job!
