A recent brief, A Penguin Book cover project...
There were a handful of books to choose from and I settled on Treasure Island (mainly because I loved the muppets version as a child) But Ive always wanted to read the 'real' book so this was the perfect chance. A tale about pirates, treasure and the sea (essentially) after a quick google search you notice that alot of the covers are of the traditional type, Im talking oil painted canvas'. So what better than a challenge to bring this old time novel up to 2014s standards.
It was easy to let your mind stray abit as you could get away with more as it was a well known book, but I settled on the idea of a sort of sea map! I liked the idea of all the different levels there are in the sea and something which represented that!
