New Cover Art

I wanted to do something different for my Better Than You cover and exercise my rusty art skills. In keeping with the shoe theme, Delta's had to be, of course, nothing less than fabulous.

I sketched out her stilettos on heavyweight sketch paper.



Then used oil pastels for color. As much as I crave realism in fiction, realism in art is something I just can't capture. So I went for an intentionally fuzzy look with this project. Bold and artsy rather than delicate.

 

Then I (after lots of trial and error because I'm not a bit tech savvy) added in the text, and there we have it: my new cover art.
