Un-commissioned | New Talent

Why did you make this work:
I’m a big fan of Jo Nesbo’s crime novels. I designed books covers for 3 of my favorite books from the Harry Hole series. I try to emphasize the suspenseful and criminal atmosphere and keep the design in line with the content and title. Each cover is a horizontal single image, with a uniform ratio of black and white on the spine.

What materials and techniques did you use?:
I drew it in procreate. And I digitally applied some texture that I made and scanned to my drawing. I paint these textures with brushes and ink.

How were your illustrations used:
They’re applied to book covers or sleeves for physical publications.
