The Wind in the Willows Book Cover Experiments

This was the first experiment i did, i like certain elements of it, like the tree and the colour palette iv used, but i just dont like everything together and i dont think it works and i think it looks as if its missing something on the front cover.




In these covers i wanted to try making them really simplistic and stripping them down to only using a few of my drawings and placing them on a white background. I think these work much better than trying to create a full scene.
I used acrylic ink in all of these drawings some are line drawings and some pressed ink, and I combined all the different elements using photoshop.
