The Poet's Girl
I created a custom illustration for the cover of this lovely historic fiction novel by Sara Fitzgerald, which brings the romance of Emily Hale and poet T. S. Eliot to life. It felt important to represent the time period and central character (Hale) with an aesthetic that felt both soft and bold—and contemporary. The story is rather timeless.
Furthermore, it was printed with antique paper featuring deckled edges and I chose a felt texture paper with fold-in flaps for the cover. It feels rather precious to me and I love this book.
