Finished book cover

It took me forever to decide which cover to pick so I incorporated some of my favorite parts of each background into one and this is what I came up with.

Research for the book cover

I want to incorporate the textures of old hard back books into the book cover, it will be interesting to incorporate this with the modern style of my digital drawing of Alfie

I drew different dogs on procreate based off photos of dogs belonging to my friends and family. I wanted to try out different styles of drawing them as well as different breeds of dog to see which was more fitting for the book cover

Potatoe prints

I attempted recreating the texture of a paw print using potatoes and different amounts of paint, I also experimented with hand prints to see the contrasting sizes and textures it produced. I liked playing around with colour and cutting into the stamp to create even more of an interesting look.

Typography ideas

I started exploring different fonts in relation to the title of the book cover both digitally (on procreate) and physically by using various types of handwriting
