Why did you make this work:
I created the book cover with inside illustrations and chapter illustrations for David Farr's debut novel "The Book of Stolen Dreams", published by Usborne. It's a middle grade novel about the adventures of two children who grew up in a dystopian world looking for a magical book. This story is inspired by the journey of David Farr's great-aunt and great-uncle escaping the nazi regime in the 1930s.

How was the illustration used:
The illustrations were used for the cover, the chapters and little poems inside the book. In addition I created an illustration which was the inside of a limited edition wrap.

How did you make this work:
All illustrations were done digitally using Procreate and Photoshop. The Cover was designed by Katharine Millichope.
